Almere City - AZ Alkmaar predictions

The game is heavily lopsided in the visitors’ favour – for instance, most bookies are offering 5.40 odds on a home win. The hosts are no doubt in a difficult situation and don’t have much hope of overcoming AZ Alkmaar.

We are most likely going to see this match being won by AZ Alkmaar. They have a solid advantage over their opponents – at least according to the betting odds. That said, we’ve definitely seen much bigger surprises in the Eredivisie but such a scenario is not entirely likely in this fixture.

Almere City home supporters were not too happy with the team when they failed to gain a lead for most of their previous Eredivisie match. After all, they had home-field advantage and were generally considered close favourites. They did manage to earn a 1-goal lead in the second half, though, which was the final score as well.

The away team faced an uphill battle last round, and it’s no surprise that they ended up losing 0:1 to Feyenoord. Eredivisie betting odds made it quite clear that they were heavily outmatched, so the HT/FT defeat was in line with most betting predictions.

Almere City have been having issues defending lately, though it’s mostly affected their away games for now. They’ve recorded 5 concessions in the past 3 games as visitors.

Looking over their most recent appearances, AZ Alkmaar have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net. The past 3 home games saw them concede over 5 times.

AZ Alkmaar won the home game they played against Almere City earlier in the season, and they did so with a notable goal difference. Winning this showdown as well would firmly establish them as the better team.

With no players out due to injury or suspension, both teams will have their full lineups ready for a thrilling showdown.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
