Prediction: 0-2
Zwolle
Almere City and Zwolle go head to head at Yanmar Stadion in the opening match of Saturday’s program. Almere City do not seem to be competitive at this level, with the team conceding 12 goals in total in three consecutive defeats to Twente, Fortuna Sittard, and Feyenoord. The newcomers are desperate to grab something from Saturday’s clash and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against Zwolle. Comoros forward Faiz Mattoir should miss out with injury for the home side.
The Blauwingers, on the other hand, enjoyed the taste of victory at the weekend, with the team beating Utrecht thanks to Ferdy Druijf’s goal. Zwolle are more of a team than Almere City and we predict that they will take advantage of the home team’s shaky defence. As for the away side, both Ryan Thomas and Samir Lasgir are rated doubtful for the match.

Founded on June 12, 1910, PEC Zwolle is a Dutch football club which competes in the Eredivisie.
