There's no doubt PSV have been having their troubles this season but they have managed to win their last 2 home games in the Eredivise since the re-start and those wins came against ALKMAAR [just 2pts behind PSV in 7th] and TWENTE [currently 2nd ]
HERACLES recent away record is 2-1-2 but those wins came against the teams currently in 16th and 18th place in the table , while the draw came against the 12th placed side.
I think PSV may well prove too strong at home for Heracles and although the odds are rather skinny i'll take them as i'll be doubling PSV up with AZ ALKMAAR on Saturday.
This main stat i noticed about this game is how bad UTRECHT have been away from home this season , 1-1-9 , scoring only 8 and conceding 28.
The winter break has not any difference as they have lost the 3 aways they have played [ 2 league and 1 cup match]
AZ on the other hand have won both homes since the break and not conceded in both , scoring 5.
One concern is that top scorer , JOHANNSSON , is still doubtful but compared to the fact that UTRECHT will have up to 8 players missing through injury then i can still see AZ winning comfortably.
Stake 10pts double PSV / ALKMAAR @ 1.36 and 1.50 with CORAL
