Match Preview
Almere City hosts Willem II at the Yanmar Stadion on Friday evening, both teams looking to improve their standings in the Eerste Divisie. Almere City enters the match with a mixed bag of results, having secured two wins and three draws in their last five outings. In contrast, Willem II has struggled, managing just one win alongside four losses in their recent fixtures. This disparity in form could provide Almere with the upper hand, especially considering their home advantage.
Historically, Willem II has dominated this fixture, winning six of the last ten encounters, but Almere's recent performances suggest they could pose a significant challenge. With both teams showing vulnerabilities in defence, particularly Willem II, who have conceded in four of their last five matches, the odds for both teams to score (BTTS) at 1.61 appear enticing. Additionally, the likelihood of over 2.5 goals at 1.66 is supported by their previous head-to-heads, where five of the last ten matches have seen three or more goals. This match promises to be an intriguing contest, with both sides eager for points.
