Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Sunday’s football game between Twente and Almere City will bring down the curtain on the Eredivisie round 25. The Reds aim to keep their Champions League hopes alive and they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of Almere City’s visit.
The away team, meanwhile, are stuck at the bottom of the table with only 14 points on their account. As Almere are ten points behind the safe zone, Sunday’s clash could be crucial in their battle for survival. Jeroen Rijsdijk’s troops, though, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Feyenoord and Ajax and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Twente’s party at De Grolsch Veste. In their last meeting in Enschede, Twente recorded a routine 3-1 win over Almere City, who are still without injured duo Barbet – Carbonell.
Highlighted Team (Twente):
Based in the city of Enschede, Twente is a Dutch football club that welcomes their rivals at De Grolsch Veste. The venue was opened on May 10, 1998, and the capacity of the stadium is 30,205 people. The club was founded in 1965 as a merger of Sportsclub Enschede and Enschedese Boys.
The Reds did remarkably well to win the Eredivisie title in the 2009/10 season, with the team finishing the process only one point clear of Dutch giants Ajax. As a result, Twente booked their place in the Champions League group stages. The Reds did well to collect six points in their group, but that did not help them make it to the last 16.
Twente are well known for their red jerseys, but they wear dark blue shirts when playing on the travels. The Reds take on Heracles Almelo in the Twentse Derby. Sander Boshchker is leading Twente’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 653 goals on his account.
