Heracles Almelo and RKC Waalwijk have met often lately, and in their most recent meeting last August, Heracles Almelo won 3-1 at home. This time the context is different, because Heracles Almelo have climbed to the top of the table with 22 points from 9 matches, while RKC Waalwijk sit 7th with 14 points. The hosts have lost only one match all season, and in their latest outing they again shared the points in a game with goals. The visitors have also lost just one match, but they have drawn as many as five. Their recent scorelines suggest they do not close games out easily, even though they score plenty in some matches. Both sides' defences have conceded a similar amount, 12 goals each. If Heracles Almelo dominate possession and push forward as they normally do, given their average is superior to RKC Waalwijk over several spells, the game should flow the hosts' way, and if the first goal comes early, the visitors, sitting deep, will find it even harder to stay in the game.
