Netherlands – Eerste Divisie
Date: 17 February 2023, Friday
Kick-off at 19:00 UK / 20:00 CET
Venue: Yanmar Stadion, Almere.
Almere City will host Helmond Sport at the Yanmar Stadion on Friday for their upcoming league match.
Almere City come into the match on the back of a 1-0 win over FC Eindhoven.
As a result, Alex Pastoor’s team are currently 3rd in the league with 42 points after 24 matches.
Their opponents, Helmond Sport won their last league match 1-0 against Roda. The win ended their five match winless run in the league.
Bob Peeters’s team are currently 18th in the league with 25 points after 24 matches.
We are counting on Almere City to pull off a win here. Almere City have been in fine form at home in recent times. They have only lost one of their last six home games. They have also won four of those matches.
Helmond Sport, on the other hand are currently struggling for form away from home. They are currently winless in their last four away league matches. They have also lost two of those matches.
We expect goals in this match. Almere City have seen three or more goals in seven of their past 10 home league matches. Helmond Sport have also seen three or more goals in three of their past 10 away league matches.
Also, seven of the last 10 matches between the two teams have produced three or more goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this weekend.
Almere City have a fine home form going into the match. They also have a superb record against Helmond Sport at home in recent times. Furthermore, Helmond Sport have had an abysmal away form going into the match including a four-match winless streak.
A -1.0 Asian handicap on Almere City at 1.95 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
For the second tip, over 2.5 goals at 1.72 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
