Heerenveen vs Excelsior Betting Tips & Live Stream - High Scoring Match Expected in the Eredivisie
Heerenveen are favourites to defeat Excelsior in their upcoming Eredivisie/Conference League match, but Excelsior’s scoring record suggests a high-scoring contest is likely. While Heerenveen have only secured two wins this season, Excelsior average two goals per game and have scored in their last 13 matches. The article highlights Over 3.5 goals and Both Teams To Score (BTTS) as top bets, noting team news and streaming options. The central recommendation is to focus on the goals markets rather than backing Heerenveen outright.
- Excelsior have scored 16 goals in 8 matches
- Heerenveen are favourites despite winning 2 games
- I am expecting a high scoring clash in the Eredivisie

HTH
These clubs have met on 62 occasions with little in it, Excelsior leading Heerenveen 26-24 alongside 12 draws.
Hosts Up and Down
Heerenveen have been wildly inconsistent this season, 11 goals scored and conceded with more points picked up on the road.
Robin Veldman’s side earned a 2-2 draw at Ajax, the highlight coming before the international break when they registered a convincing 4-0 win at Sparta Rotterdam.
The northern club returned to action with a 2-0 defeat at PSV. They had 5-2 shots on target and 1.55-2.34 xG in Eindhoven but failed to make it count.
Yegoian a Big Improver for Excelsior
Excelsior won three of their opening four matches this season but haven’t tasted victory in four games since.
The Rotterdam club have scored six goals in that run which includes 2-2 draws at Nijmegen and Ajax.
Ruben den Uil’s side are coming off a heavy 5-1 defeat against Groningen. Excelsior had 16-14 shots and 1.74-3.06 xG but the manager was far from pleased: “It was a collective failure. Not one or two players having an off day, but a failure as a team.”
“It has been a very long time since I have seen us perform like this. Away at NEC last season, on the first matchday, 5-0, we were completely outplayed. That is what I am comparing it to. I didn't see this coming, it surprised me.”
Irakli Yegoian has been on fire this season, the 22-year-old registering three goals and five assists.
