Almere City vs De Graafschap Prediction & Tips
One of the quarter-final fixtures in the Eredivisie promotion play-offs pits Almere City against De Graafschap. The first leg takes place this Wednesday at 6.45 pm at the Yanmar Stadion. The home side finished fifth in the Eerste Divisie and have already played one round in these play-offs. They put in a very solid performance to knock out Den Bosch, winning the first leg (2-3) and the second leg (3-0). The team coached by Jeroen Rijsdijk knows it will have to raise its game for this new two-legged tie. Very strong in front of their own fans, they will be looking to get off to the best possible start in this first leg.
De Graafschap are just entering these promotion play-offs. They qualified directly for the quarter-finals by finishing fourth in the Eerste Divisie. However, they did not finish the regular season in the best of form, winning only four of their last ten matches. Furthermore, Marinus Dijkhuizen’s men have not shone on the road. They have picked up just two points from their last three away matches. It will not be easy to turn things around when they travel to face Almere City.
