Feyenoord vs Heracles Prediction: Stats, Odds, and Smart Betting Tips

Welcome to our Feyenoord vs Heracles prediction, where we break down everything you need to know for this Eredivisie fixture on Sunday, January 25, 2026, at 15:45 GMT. With Feyenoord hosting Heracles at De Kuip, we’ll blend stats, tactics, recent form, and betting odds into a readable story to help you make smarter decisions—because, let’s face it, football is unpredictable, but your tips shouldn’t be!

Team News, Tactics, and Recent Form

Feyenoord, currently sitting second in the Eredivisie table with 36 points, have hit a rough patch. Despite their strong league position, they haven’t tasted victory in their last five matches—two draws and three defeats, including a wild 4-3 loss to Sparta Rotterdam at home. Yet, their home record is still one of the most reliable in Dutch football.

Heracles, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom of the league with just 14 points. Their recent form doesn’t inspire much confidence either: no wins, one draw, and four defeats in their last five. Their latest outing ended in a 2-0 loss to Twente. Statistically, this isn’t a David vs Goliath—it’s more like Goliath’s big brother versus David’s cousin.

  • Head to head: Feyenoord dominates with 23 wins from 32 meetings. Heracles have only managed two victories, and Feyenoord haven’t lost to them in the last 21 games.
  • Recent meetings: Feyenoord won 5-2 in their most recent encounter, and they’ve kept a clean sheet in all of the last five head-to-head matches.
  • Team values: Feyenoord’s squad is valued at a whopping €235.15m, while Heracles’ is just €12.07m—a gulf that’s hard to ignore.

Injuries and Suspensions

Feyenoord are missing several key players, including top scorer Ayase Ueda (fitness doubts), and Quinten Timber, who’s in the headlines for all the wrong reasons after a public spat with coach Robin van Persie. The injury list is long, but Feyenoord’s depth should see them through. Heracles have their own issues: Ajdin Hrustic is suspended, and a handful of players are nursing injuries.

Tactical Insights and Coaching Styles

Robin van Persie’s Feyenoord side thrives on attacking football, combining possession play with quick transitions. Even with a leaky defense recently, their ability to create chances is unquestionable. Heracles, managed by Bas Sibum in his first Eredivisie campaign, typically line up in a 4-2-3-1. Their best hope? Catch Feyenoord on the break or from set-pieces—but leaving space behind the midfield could be their undoing.

  • Ball possession estimate: Feyenoord 66%, Heracles 34%
  • Total shots: Feyenoord 18, Heracles 8
  • Total corners: Feyenoord 8, Heracles 3

  3. Expected score: Feyenoord 3-2 Heracles (First half: 1-1)

Final Thoughts and Best Bets

To sum up our Feyenoord vs Heracles prediction: the smart money is on a home win, with Feyenoord likely to dominate possession, create more chances, and keep their strong head-to-head record intact. Over 2.5 goals is another solid pick, given both teams’ defensive issues and attacking intent. If you’re feeling adventurous, a bet on both teams to score might also offer value.

Whether you’re a stats lover or just here for the fun, this Eredivisie meeting promises goals, drama, and—if history repeats itself—a happy afternoon for Feyenoord fans.
