We said: Heracles 1-1 Sparta Rotterdam

Following a very poor lead-up to the international break, Heracles got a much-needed victory last time out and will be hoping that was the turning point of the campaign for them. They face a much tougher opponent here, though, and while Sparta should dominate the possession in the match, we feel that these sides will end level at the full-time whistle. Read more.
