Heerenveen are going through a tough spell. They have only won one of their last five matches, losing three and drawing one. In their most recent game, they lost 3-2, which shows they are struggling to keep clean sheets. Groningen are also not in great form, with two wins and three losses from their last five. Their results are very mixed, with no draws, meaning they can either win or lose on any given day. Looking at the history between these two teams, their meetings are often very tight and low-scoring. In the last ten games between them, most have been decided by a single goal, and there have been a few 1-1 draws. Very few of these matches have had more than three goals.

This match looks like it will be a close, tense affair. Both teams are near the bottom of the table and are struggling for consistency. Because their recent games have been so tight and their past meetings are often decided by fine margins, the game is likely to be a nervous one. It is very difficult to separate them, so a draw seems the most likely result here.
