Double chance : draw or Excelsior
Heracles at home have been quite inconsistent lately. They've had a couple of big losses, but also managed to win two of their last five games. They are coming off a heavy defeat, so they might be a bit low on confidence.
Excelsior, the away team, have won three of their last five matches, showing they are in decent shape. Looking at recent meetings between these two, the games have often been quite open with several goals scored. Based on their current form, Excelsior looks more likely to get a result here.
