Emmen vs Almere Lineups and Team News
Emmen
Emmen dominated possession on their visit to Almere for about an hour. They created precious little in attack though and eventually, the hosts punished them with a very strong display during the final 30 minutes. Emmen lost 0-2 but it could have been worse as the woodwork saved them twice too.
Emmen have some serious selection issues. Regular starters in defence Hardeveld and Veendorp are out injured. So are the useful strikers Guclu, Lieder and Mendes. Without them, Darfalou sees some use but he is yet to impress. This seriously restricts the rotation options and cripples badly the front line.
Almere
Almere played a solid and smart game in the first leg. They weathered some early pressure from Emmen without allowing any serious chances. Then after a slow start to the second period, Almere took the initiative past the hour mark and never looked back on the way to winning 2-0.
The squad will be boosted for this vital second leg as both Akujobi and Post are returning after bans. At least, the former is very likely to start. Defender Royo is among the 4 sidelined players.
