Almere City form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Eerste Divisie this season. Almere City have only managed 1 win, 2 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Yanmar Stadion. When Almere City hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like VVV-Venlo, Telstar, FC Dordrecht, TOP Oss, Almere City and Helmond Sport), they have won 1 of 2 matches! With Almere having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager G. Verbeek.

Almere drew their last game, 4-4 away at Excelsior (placed 2nd). Almere salvaged the draw from a difficult situation against Excelsior, trailing 0-2 at one point. Not giving up resulted in Jonas Arweiler equalizing. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Jonas Arweiler could bring home the match ball after scoring three goals against Excelsior, but was annoyed the match ended without a win (4-4). The attacking player Jonas Arweiler won the honour of being "man of the match" for Almere with a rating of 9.14/10. Arweiler scored three goals and hit one key pass.

Ahead of that match, Almere lost 1-3 at home to ADO Den Haag.

Almere City have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Yanmar Stadion with 13 goals in 7 league matches. Almere are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (17 from 7 played).
