This Eerste Divisie fixture has more to it than the standings suggest. Almere City sit 2nd but lost their most recent match, while Roda JC Kerkrade are 6th and hitting their targets. Both need points to stay in the upper group of the table. Almere City have won 3 of their last 5, but in the two defeats they conceded 3 and 2 goals. Roda JC Kerkrade are unbeaten in 2 straight and just won 2-1 in their latest match. Neither defence is tight enough to shut the game down completely, but Roda JC Kerkrade's attack isn't blowing anyone away either. The pattern should see Almere City dominate the ball and push forward for chances, while Roda JC Kerkrade sit back and wait to counter. The first half may not open up fully, but after the break the hosts will step it up to close out the game.
