Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Our prediction for Sunday's match is over 2.5 goals, meaning that we expect Heerenveen and AZ Alkmaar to score 3 goals or more combined during the traditional 90 mins. 2 goals or less would mean a losing bet but, with statistics below suggesting both teams have goals in them, we think there's good reason to feel confident.
