Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
After holding AZ Alkmaar to a draw on the road, Go Ahead Eagles will look to return to winning ways in the Eredivisie when they take on Zwolle at their De Adelaarschorst in Sunday’s matinee. Paul Simons’ men are eyeing their third home win of the process and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Forward Soren Tengstedt remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
Johnny Jansen’s troops, on the other hand, suffered yet another dip in form, losing to both NAC Breda and PSV in the last two league matches. Given Younes Namli’s suspension, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the home side. You should know that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous four meetings between the two sides.
Highlighted Team (Zwolle):
Founded on June 12, 1910, PEC Zwolle is a Dutch football club which competes in the Eredivisie. Zwolle have yet to win the national championship, but they did remarkably well to lift the Dutch Cup trophy in 2014. Ron Jans’s troops impressed in the title game, with the team rolling over Dutch giants Ajax 5-1.
The Blauwingers play their home games at MACPARK Stadion, the venue with the capacity of 14,000 people. The multi-use stadium was opened on August 29, 2009. Zwolle’s home kit is blue and white, while the colour of their away jersey is green and white. In the 2014/15 season the Blauwingers represented the Netherlands in the Europa League, with the team losing to Sparta Prague in the play-off round.
The likes of Henk Timmer (237), Johan Hansma (231), Bert Konterman (219), Arne Slot (208), and Jasper Drost (182) are the players with the most league appearances for the club. Go Ahead Eagles are considered the club’s biggest rivals as both teams are located at the river Ijssel.
