SBV Vitesse (home)
- Almere City have 4 points from 2 games in the Eerste Divisie 2026-2027 (3rd place) to Vitesse's 1 point from 1 game (14th place).
- Vitesse are winless at home in the Eerste Divisie 2026-2027 (1 game played, 1 goal conceded).
- Ruediger Rehm has set Vitesse up in a 4-2-3-1 system, with their best players allowed to express themselves in transition and on the break.
Almere City (away)
- Almere City have had a similarly mixed run of form with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from their last 5 games.
- De Zwarte Schapen ground their way through a 1-1 draw away to FC Den Bosch before cruising to a 3-1 home win over the PSV Reserves, and their form heading into this game is just about on the plus side.
Head-to-Head
- Vitesse and Almere City meet again in the Eerste Divisie and Vitesse have failed to win their last 2 against De Zwarte Schapen.
- Almere City won the last head-to-head 3-1 away from home in the Eerste Divisie 2025-2026 and are unbeaten in their last 2 meetings with Vitesse, which gives them a slight edge.
Key Players
Naoufal Bannis leads the way with one Eerste Divisie goal in 2026-2027 so far (1 match played) and is their sharp focal point in the front line, whilst Omar Achouitar has already provided 1 assist in 1 game in the same competition to provide a bit of spark in the final third.
Betting Insights
- Anoush Dastgir's men line up in a 4-3-3 and will look to win the ball back quickly, which should lead to a fast-paced game.
- Ferdy Druijf (2 goals in 2 games for Almere City in Eerste Divisie 2026-2027) is the visitor's biggest threat to score, whilst Naoufal Bannis leads Vitesse scoring with 1 goal in 1 match, so the 1.6 odds on over 2.5 goals looks the cleanest alternative market.
Prediction
Almere City have had a slightly better start to the Eerste Divisie 2026-2027 and given that we're getting them at 2.45 , we're siding with the away team in the full-time result market.
