4 FAQs about Zwolle vs Almere City

Ahead of Friday night’s top-of-the-table Eerste Divisie clash between Zwolle and Almere City, we have selected three top betting tips for the big game. With both teams needing a win in their quest for promotion, it is sure to be a fascinating encounter.

Zwolle to win

It may seem safe backing the home team who currently sit in 2nd place in the table over the away team who sit 5th but form also suggests that Zwolle have the edge in this one. While both teams have enjoyed a break over the winter period, the home side goes into the game on the back of four consecutive league wins. They also know that a victory would take them to within two points of the league leaders as they look to seal promotion to the Eredivisie.

Almere City’s form isn’t exactly bad either, having won four of their last five league games. However, they have only won two of their last four away games and there aren’t many tougher places to go in the division than Zwolle. The home team also has history on their side. They haven’t lost to Almere City in ten games with the away side’s last victory over Zwolle coming in 2006.

Under 2.5 goals

Zwolle have the best defensive record in the league and Almere City have the third best. The away side also aren’t known for scoring goals having scored less than every other team in the top six. This all points to a tight encounter with defences coming out on top. Five of Almere’s last seven league games have seen two goals or less while the same can be said for four of Zwolle’s last six.

Zwolle to score first

It is expected that Zwolle will be the side that dominate possession while Almere will sit back and look to hit their opponents on the counter attack. With that being said, it’s reasonable to assume that Zwolle have the best chance of finding the first goal. In six out of their last seven games, the home side have scored the first goal of the game which doesn’t bode well for Almere City.

Zwolle vs Almere City match preview and news

Zwolle

After finishing rock bottom of the Eredivisie last year, Zwolle are looking to immediately bounce back to the top division in Dutch football. The top two automatically get promoted and they are currently sitting pretty in second place. They have a five-point cushion on third place, Maastricht and will be hoping to move to closer to the top with a win here.

Almere City

Almere City are also in the hunt for promotion and sit six points behind their opponents in the league table. Realistically, they cannot afford a loss here if they are to go up automatically, which means the best they could hope for is a place in the playoffs.
