Heerenveen — NAC Breda : Match Preview and Prediction for October 24,2025

Heerenveen’s Resurgent Form

Heerenveen has found a strong rhythm this autumn in the . Under Robin Veldman’s guidance, the team secured a 3-2 victory against Telstar in Rotterdam during the previous round, marking their third win in the last four championship fixtures.

While their season began with a modest performance, their 4-2-3-1 formation is now operating effectively, significantly boosting Heerenveen’s attacking prowess.

In their match against Telstar in Velsen-Zuid, the visitors quickly took control, establishing leads of 2-0 and 3-1. However, a late goal from Sonnveld led to a tense finish. Despite some defensive vulnerabilities, their offense has been remarkably potent, with the hosts netting at least two goals in each of their last four league matches. This strong run has seen Heerenveen rise to 11th in the league standings, and they aim to further improve their position when facing Breda. However, they will be without Levi Smans, Paweł Bochniewicz, and Amourricho van Axel Dongen for this crucial fixture.

NAC Breda’s Inconsistent Form

NAC Breda’s season has been largely inconsistent, suggesting they will likely remain in the lower half of the league standings, close to the relegation zone, similar to their previous campaign. Although they ended a two-match losing streak with a 2-2 home draw against Zwolle in the last round, the ‘Yellow-Blacks’ squandered a two-goal lead, an outcome they are surely not pleased with.

The Belgian coach’s squad has managed only one win in their last seven league encounters. The visitors are currently conceding almost two goals per game on average (16 goals in 9 rounds), placing them 14th in the table. Given NAC Breda’s current form, the away fixture against Heerenveen promises to be a challenging one. Moussa Soumano and Terence Kongolo are confirmed absentees for the ‘Yellow-Blacks’.
