Claim Welcome Bonus!Almere City
Almere City secured a 2-0 win over Willem II in their last game, with goals from Charles-Andreas Brym in the 12th minute and Marvin Martins deciding the game. The win ended their five-game winless run, but they are still without a win in their last four games in front of their home fans. The Black Sheep sit at the bottom of the table with 18 points in 27 games, scoring 18 goals and conceding 50. They will need to improve their form to at least salvage a relegation playoff spot, as it already appears they will spend their next season in the second division. Meanwhile, Hamdi Akujobi is suspended for this clash due to accumulated yellow cards, and Alex Carbonell will miss this clash due to a hamstring injury.
PEC Zwolle
PEC Zwolle returned to winning ways with a 2-0 win over Waalwijk in their last game. Dylan Vente scored the game's first goal in the 74th minute, beautifully converting from the spot before Filip Krastev added to the lead in the 83rd minute. The Bluefingers had endured six matches without a win prior to this game. However, they have been unbeaten in four of their last games on the road, and they have managed just one win this season. They sit 14th on the table with 29 points in 27 games, scoring 32 goals and conceding 41. However, due to injuries, Samir Lagsir (knee) and Tristan Gooijer (knee) will miss this game.

Expert Betting Tips
Both sides bounced back to winning ways in their games, but obviously, the tough times will still return. However, I see the visitors picking up at least a point from the match because they perform fairly better than the hosts and have the historic dominance over them. However, I expect a few goals in this game because neither side is exceptional in front of the goal.
Our prediction for this match is to see less than three goals for odds of 1.83 at 1xbet.
Our second prediction for this match is for both teams to score, for odds of 1.72 at Betway.
Our third prediction is for Zwolle to win or draw at odds of 1.66 at Bet365.
