Almere City vs G.A. Eagles Prediction & Betting tips
In Almere a cracker is scheduled on Friday evening: The number three in the competition will be the leader. Both teams are twenty points, but who can give a tap on Friday?
Almere City:
In Almere they will think back to last week with melancholy. The Flevolanders last week were two expensive points in and against FC Volendam. Almere was there, after first with 1-0 behind, in the 88th minute on a neat 1-2 lead. Unfortunately for Almere, the match lasted a bit too long and Volendam midfielder Nick Doodeman just managed to score the 2-2. As a result, Almere City lost its leading position to Friday’s opponent Go Ahead Eagles. However, this is on goal difference, as both teams are twenty points. Nice fact for Almere City is that the game was already sold out last Monday, which seems to indicate that football is starting to live more and more in Almere, a city that can use a positive boost.
For coach Michele Santoni there is not really a reason to make changes to the team, since the results are pretty decent. The tie from last week ended an impressive series of 4 wins in a row and thus from the last five games thirteen points were achieved. In terms of home games, the Almeerders are also fine with ten points from five matches, with the last three wins.
Go Ahead Eagles:
Go Ahead Eagles took over the stick from the upcoming opponent last week. Where Almere spilled points, Go Ahead was able to win convincingly from Roda JC, with Paco van Moorsel crowning himself as man of the game by making two hits. Striker Thomas Verheides also managed to get his name on the scoreboard and thus again scored for his seventh goal of the season. The Deventenaren managed to produce 22 goals in total, making them the most scoring team of the Kitchen Champion Competition and trainer John Stegeman has nothing to complain about scoring.
It must be noted here that the points are achieved in Deventer in particular where there was only one draw and the rest was won. In the away games, the Eagles usually have a harder time. For example, seven points were only achieved in the four away games by two victories in the beginning against Eindhoven and MVV, after which they lost in Alkmaar against Jong AZ and in Nijmegen of NEC. It will be time for a victory.
