Excelsior vs Heerenveen – 28 February 2027, Eredivisie: H2H, form and match facts

Excelsior host Heerenveen in what promises to be a decisive clash for the Rotterdam side, who sit sixth with ten points from six games, boasting three wins, a draw and two defeats while scoring 13 and conceding seven. The visitors sit just above the relegation zone in eleventh place, having gathered six points from one victory, three draws and two losses, with a modest return of seven goals for and nine against. Excelsior’s superior goal difference (+6) and recent form suggest they will aim to extend their push for a top‑four finish, whereas Heerenveen will need to tighten up defensively if they hope to climb out of the lower half. The head‑to‑head record this season has favoured the home side, adding another layer of pressure on the Dutch side to turn the tide.
