When VVV-Venlo hosts Almere City for the first leg of their Eredivisie playoff semi-final at De Koel on Tuesday night, they will be looking to gain a first-leg advantage.
The home team advanced by defeating Willem II 5-4 on aggregate, while Almere City defeated Eindhoven 3-2 on aggregate in the opening round.
Venlo vs Almere City
With a total of 58 points, VVV-Venlo earned a spot in the seventh spot in the final Eerste Divisie league standings.
The Good Old were demoted from the Eredivisie at the conclusion of the 2020–21 season. The next year, they were 10th in the second division before taking seventh place in 2022–23. In the first round of the playoffs, Rick Kruys’ team faced Willem II. They won the first leg of their match 3-2, and after a 2-2 draw in the second leg, the final aggregate result was 5-4.
The winner of the match between VVV-Venlo and Almere will proceed to the playoff final, where Emmen or NAC Breda will be ready to play for a position in the Eredivisie.
During the regular season, the Yellow and Blacks defeated Almere City in both league matches, winning 3-0 at home and 3-1 away. Almere City, meanwhile, defeated Eindhoven in the opening round of the playoffs, winning 3-2 overall under Alex Pastoor’s leadership.
The team from Flevoland really suffered a 1-0 defeat in the away match against Eindhoven but came back to win the second leg 3-1 after extra time to go to the semifinals. With the second-best away record throughout the regular season, Almere City has excelled on the road this year. In contrast, VVV-Venlo has struggled to maintain consistency at home, collecting only 25 points from 19 games, winning only six times.
Verdict
In the Eerste Divisie, there isn’t much distance between Almere City and Venlo. In comparison to their opponents, who are in fourth position with 48 points, the hosts are in third place with 49 points.
They are no longer backable due to the low pricing for Almere City. Venlo doesn’t appear to be capable of doing the job, but they might hold the hosts accountable. Building on both teams’ outstanding rearguard efforts, a scoreless draw is a prediction.
At the back, these sides made an impression. Almere City hasn’t given up a single goal in any of their last three games despite being consistently attacked. Venlo, meanwhile, has only given up 1 goal in their last 3 games.
The market’s outstanding wager is the chances against a No BTTS outcome. Two of Almere City’s previous three home games have ended in draws. Additionally, they and Helmond drew 0-0 at home in February; a result along those lines is anticipated now. There is merit in supporting the standoff given the price on offer.
