Willem II - SC Heerenveen

Forward Devin Haen remains a focal point for Willem II as they attempt to arrest a difficult start to the Eredivisie season. The hosts head into this matchday 4 clash at Koning Willem II Stadion following a challenging run that saw them concede heavily against both NEC Nijmegen and Go Ahead Eagles. With goalkeeper Thomas Didillon sidelined due to injury, Karst de Leeuw is expected to step in, anchoring a defensive unit that faces the urgent task of finding stability after recent setbacks.

SC Heerenveen arrive seeking a return to the form that earned them a victory over FC Twente earlier this month. Despite a recent defeat to PEC Zwolle, they demonstrated resilience in a 2-2 draw against Ajax. With Dylan Vente leading the line, the visitors will look to exploit the gaps in their opponents' backline. History favors the away side, who secured a 2-1 victory in their most recent meeting on 8 December 2024.
