General match analysis

A draw appears to be the most likely outcome, as both teams have drawn their respective matches so far in the relevant home–away configuration, and neither has kept a clean sheet. Almere City create more chances, averaging 22 shots away from home compared with Vitesse’s 11, while their average xG stands at 2.17 versus 1.36 for the hosts. However, the visitors have a clear finishing problem, converting just 5% of their shots into goals, compared with Vitesse’s 9%. The form from the last five matches slightly favors Vitesse, who have scored 11 goals and conceded 4, while Almere City have scored 6 and conceded 7. The visitors’ edge in chance creation should offset the hosts’ superior recent finishing, increasing the likelihood of the points being shared.

In their last five matches, Vitesse have been leading at the break in 80% of games, scoring an average of 1.2 goals before half-time and conceding none. Almere City have taken a half-time lead in only 20% of their recent matches, while their average of 0.4 first-half goals is clearly inferior to the hosts’ figure.
