Almere City - PEC Zwolle predictions

PEC Zwolle will give Almere City a run for their money and there is no doubt about it. However, at 2.25 odds on home win in this match, we still recommend backing the hosts.

The visiting team is fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead. A win against Almere City on their home field would be a significant achievement, and it is never an easy task.

There is no denying that Almere City put on quite a show in their previous Eredivisie outing. They were given the odds of 2.82 to claim an away win against a strong side and they fully delivered. The Saturday hosts were level at halftime and ended up claiming a rather surprisingly convincing Willem II in the end.

PEC Zwolle played against RKC Waalwijk in the previous round on home grounds, with top online bookmakers pricing their victory at 3.61. The scores were still tied at the 45-minute mark, but PEC Zwolle went on to score several goals in the second half and decisively win.

The hosts have a dubious performance record at home. The previous 3 times they played at home were marked with over 5 goals conceded. That’s bad news considering playing at home is usually seen as an advantage.

Considering the away team’s recent history, it seems they don’t play their best when they’re visitors. The previous 3 times were marked by 5 goals conceded and the negative trend will probably continue.

There’s very little of the season left for the hosts to move up and out of the relegation zone. They have a shot at earning 3 in this showdown, which just might be the kind of morale boost they need.

Despite the 2.25 price for a home win, the hosts lost their previous match against PEC Zwolle. However, it’s important to keep in mind that they were the visitors in that bout.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Pncl priced at 1.84 odds.
