Almere City form and stats

Let's have a look at how Almere City performed last season in the Eerste Divisie: They landed a 9th position in the league table after playing out 13 victories, 5 draws and 11 defeats. In total they scored 44 and conceded 42 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 3 - drew 4 and lost 8 with 19/28 goals scored/conceded.

After this away game Almere return home for a Eerste Divisie game against Jong Utrecht. That game is only four sleeps after this.

It's a day of discovery for Almere City as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Almere City have played seven with the results W3-D2-L2 (win-draw-lost). In these games Almere City has scored 12 goals and conceded 11 times.

Head 2 Head
