Prediction
Prediction: Corners — Sparta Rotterdam — Heerenveen
In Sparta’s home matches, the average total is 13,4 corners: the hosts win 7,2 and their opponents 6,2. The total went over the line of 8,5 in four of the five home games, although the hosts have not established a consistent run in this market. In Heerenveen’s five away matches, the average total was 12,4 corners: the visitors take 4,6, allow their opponents 7,8, and the 8,5 line was beaten in all five games; the statistical prediction for over 8,5 received a 5\/5 model rating and an estimated probability of 68%, which does not guarantee the bet will land.

Prediction
Prediction: Shots on target — Sparta Rotterdam — Heerenveen
In Sparta Rotterdam’s five home matches, the hosts averaged 4,2 shots on target and their opponents 5,0, with an average total of 9,2; the 7,5 line was beaten in four games, but there has been no consistent run of either high or low totals. In Heerenveen’s five away matches, the averages were 4,8 shots on target for the team and 5,2 for their opponents, with an average total of 10,0, while the line was beaten in four games. The model recommends over 7,5 with a 5\/5 rating and an estimated probability of 69,13%; the prediction is supported most strongly by the visitors’ overall form — 5 of 5 matches — as well as the hosts’ home matches and the visitors’ away matches — 4 of 5 each, which does not guarantee the bet will land.
