Almere City will host Feyenoord at Yanmar Stadion on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Eredivisie campaign. The home side have had a near-disastrous start to their campaign with only one win in their opening 12 games across all competitions and look increasingly unlikely to turn things around.
They got their first win of the season against NEC Nijmegen a fortnight ago and would have hoped to build momentum from that. Instead, they crashed out of the KNVB Cup in an embarrassing 3-0 loss to Tweede Divisive side Quick Boys before going on to lose 2-0 to bottom-placed Waalwijk last week Sunday.
Feyenoord, on the other hand, are having another good season with their only league loss coming against Ajax two weeks ago. The visitors got their sixth win of the league campaign in a well-deserved 3-2 comeback against AZ Alkmaar in their last outing and are primed to continue their impressive start to the season when they face second-to-last-placed Almere City on Sunday.
Almere City vs Feyenoord Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- This weekend's game will mark just the third meeting between the two teams, with Feyenoord winning their previous two matchups by an aggregate scoreline of 8-1.
- Almere have the worst attacking record (5) and the second-worst defensive record (23) in the Dutch top flight this season.
- Feyenoord are yet to lose in the league away from home this season with a goalscoring average of 2.6 goals per game on the road.
- The visitors also have the second-best offensive record in the league with 24 goals scored in just 11 matches.
Almere City vs Feyenoord Prediction
The hosts who are on a run of back-to-back defeats, have won just once in competitive action since February and will be hoping to limit the damage to their already terrible goal difference. A loss to Feyenoord could see Almere City drop to the last place on the league table, increasing their likelihood of relegation.
De Stadionclub travel to Almere as strong favorites after winning four of their last five league games. They have been superb on the road all year and should increase the points difference between them and fifth-placed Twente, who host Ajax later in the day.
Prediction: Almere City 0-3 Feyenoord
