Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there isn't an obvious winner in this fixture, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Almere City and AZ Alkmaar will find the net twice at least between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Hedwiges Maduro or Maarten Martens has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.25 equating to approximately a 78% probability.
