Contents
Almere City to Win
Both sides have won twice in the last five H2H meetings against each other but Almere City has displayed a strong form previously. The Black Sheep registered consecutive four victories in the league before this game. On the other hand, De Graafschap has been inconsistent in the recent away outings and confirmed only two wins in the last five visits. So we back the hosts to take three points at the end of this game.
Over 2.5 Goals
Three of the last four H2Hs of these teams have witnessed high-scoring totals and the same will be our next pick for this game. Almere City has found the back of the net ten times in just the previous four league outings at home. On the contrary, De Graafschap has also rattled the net 11 times in the last five competitive away outings. The Superfarmers have also conceded nine goals in the last five attempts away from home in the league.
Correct Score: 2-1 to Almere
Almere City should be able to limit the rivals to a low score as they have not allowed more than once in any of the previous five league attempts, having two clean sheets as well. The Black Sheep have also been favourable on the scoring end and hit the target at least twice in five of the last six league attempts at home. In opposition, De Graafschap has leaked more than one goal in three of the previous four league visits. So we can see the hosts confirming a 2-1 lead before this final whistle blows.
Almere vs De Graafschap Fixture Preview
Almere City
After the consecutive defeats, the Black Sheep registered a narrow victory of 1-0 against Willem II. The team’s goal was scored by Jeredy Hilterman in the 23rd minute. In their last 6 matches, Almere City has scored 8 goals, averaging 1.33 goals per match. The team has also been performing well at home, remaining undefeated in their last 4 league matches.
Almere City has registered 11 victories in the 20 league outings together with two draws and stands in the third position on the table. They have a genuine shot at promotion with a relatively injury-free dressing room and Jeredy Hilterman scoring goals for fun. The 24-year-old forward has 12 goals and three assists to his name. The only concern for manager Alex Pastoor is the injury of Faiz Mattoir, who is out with a cruciate ligament injury, otherwise, the team is at full strength.

The Superfarmers hosted Jong Ajax in the last game and thrashed them with a 3-0 victory. Charlison Benschop scored in the 26th and 83rd minutes while Devin Haen completed the rout with a 92nd-minute strike. De Graafschap will enter this fixture with confidence as they have earned a total of seven wins and four draws to get to the eleventh position in the standings.
