Two teams in dire need of a victory, albeit for very different reasons, face off in round 30 of the 2022-23 Eredivisie season as Heerenveen and Emmen go head-to-head.
The hosts are firmly in the hunt to secure European football, while their visitors make the trip to Abe Lenstra Stadion aiming to pull clear of relegation danger.
We say: Heerenveen 2-1 Emmen
Emmen have struggled to find the back of the net away from home all-season long, but we can see them scoring here. That said, we are tipping Heerenveen to come out on top, albeit by only a narrow margin.

We say: Groningen 1-1 NEC
Both sides are on a bad run of results heading into this weekend's game, which has all the makings of a nervy affair. We are anticipating a keenly-contested affair and a share of the spoils come the sound of the final whistle.

With a chance to effectively guarantee their top-flight status for next season, Vitesse will need no further incentive for this weekend's clash. The home side have turned a corner in recent weeks and we are backing them to carry the day in this one.
