Prediction: 2-2
Maccabi Tel Aviv
Tuesday’s friendly at Sportpark De Putter Eng pits together Heerenveen and Maccabi Tel Aviv. Heerenveen kicked off pre-season with a 3-1 win over Jong Utrecht, with the team playing out a 2-2 draw with Kortrijk in their second warm-up game. The Eredivisie outfit are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, and we are positive that they will find the net against Maccabi Tel Aviv.
The Yellow Ones aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Breda, and seeing that they are likely to go for a win in Tuesday’s clash as well, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. Panama international Eduardo Guerrero is likely to keep his place in Maccabi’s starting XI. The two clubs have never met before in a friendly match. Anyhow, a lively contest is on the cards at Sportpark De Putter Eng.
Highlighted Player (Erwin Mulder):
Erwin Mulder is an experienced Dutch footballer who plays for Heerenveen as a goalkeeper. Mulder spent his youth career at R.K.P.S.C, Vitesse Arnhem, and Feyenoord, and he continued playing for the Rotterdam club at senior level.
After making 120 appearances in the Eredivisie with Feyenoord, the 193-cm-tall shot-stopper signed for Heerenveen as a free agent in the summer of 2015. It has to be noted, though, that Erwin Mulder was loaned to Excelsior during his spell with Feyenoord. His next stop was Swansea City where he made 29 league appearances before returning to Heerenveen in 2020.
Erwin Mulder was born in Pannerden on March 3, 1989, and he has three caps with the Netherlands U20 team. He has yet to earn a call-up with the Oranje senior team. The Heerenveen goalkeeper was named in the Netherlands Euro 2012 provisional squad, but after the training with the national team, he failed to make the cut.
Highlighted Team (Maccabi Tel Aviv):
Maccabi Tel Aviv are the oldest and probably the biggest clubs in Israel. The club was founded in 1906 and they have been playing an important role in the Israeli League ever since. In 2015 Maccabi won their 21st trophy in the national championship and the same season they clinched their 23rd Israeli Cup title.
The club’s fiercest rivals are Hapoel Tel-Aviv and they welcome their opponents at Netanya Stadium. The capacity of the venue is 13 610. The likes of Beitar Jerusalem Hapoel Be’er Sheva and Maccabi Haifa are considered Maccabi Tel Aviv’s bitter rivals as well. In 1969 the club won the AFC Champions League and they repeated the success two years later, beating Aliyat Al-Shorta in the final.
The likes of Jordi Cruyff, Paulo Sousa, Rade Prica, Moanes Dabour and Vincent Enyeama are the high-profile footballers who were part of the team in the past. The colour of Maccabi’s home kit is yellow and blue.
