Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.834/5 in Vitesse v Heerenveen

Tobias Gourlay's hoping to finesse a positive result in the Netherlands this afternoon

Vitesse v Heerenveen
Saturday 17:30


Quite a game in Poland last night. Zaglebie Lubin 3 Jagiellonia Bialystock 4 puts us deeper into profit for the week, and that's exactly where we want to remain.

After a slip with Feyenoord's 8-0 win earlier this week, we've got unfinished business in the Netherlands. Vitesse's Eredivisie clash with Heerenveen might be the game to right that earlier wrong.

Across all competitions, five of Heerenveen's last six trips to Arnhem have delivered Over 2.5 Goals and we like the price on more of the same this afternoon.

Since the start of October, Vitesse - who start as even-money favourites - have managed just one clean sheet from 11 Eredivisie home games. Eight of those games went Over 2.5 Goals in total.

This season, 12 of Heerenveen's 14 previous away days have brought at least three match goals, and that's more than enough to convince us to stay on the high side of the line today.
