For this week’s pick, we will turn our eyes to the Netherlands, to watch a match for the Eerste Divisie between Maastricht and Almere City. Let’s look at the numbers and try to pick the best choice: |
Our home team will be the 14th placed Maastricht. They have 9 wins, 5 draws, and 15 losses, 32 points in 29 games, with 35 goals scored and a terrible 58 conceded, which gives us a -23 goal difference. There is not much we can say about them, they were in a nice sequence of victories that was broken with a defeat against Ajax on the 19th. |
On the visitor’s side, we will have Almere City. Occupying the 3rd position, they have 62 points in 29 games, with 65 goals scored and 38 conceded, which give us a rare +27 goal difference. This is a team that is doing well at the top of the table, and they have one of the strongest attacks in the league. |
Our support here will go to the visitors. They are at the 3rd position for a reason, after all, they have a good attack, and the home team tends to concede a lot of goals, so, we believe Almere City will take the victory here. |
