Go Ahead Eagles can carve something out

It won't be easy but Go Ahead Eagles can gather plenty of admirers if they can get the job done here.

Go Ahead Eagles have got some good wins ahead of this one. The hosts have registered 13 wins in 20 matches while the visitors have lost 7 of their last 8 matches, home or away. They've been facing different opposition but that doesn't stand out as the record of a confident team.

When they've played at home Go Ahead Eagles have been champing at the bit. Their recent 7 home matches have seen them knocking in an average of 2.4 goals per game and they've not been dishing out charity, letting in only 8 goals in their last 20 games at home. Notwithstanding the sportsbooks' opinions, what other evidence is there for the hosts?

In possession the visitors have occasionally been to be stuck in a rut. They've been goalless in all of their last 4 matches. Doing a deep dive into these stats creates a pretty encouraging picture for the home side - perhaps they don't need to fear the Zwolle frontline.

The match could unfold into a war of attrition with the two sides ultimately cancelling each other out. That's why the BTTS No bet makes a decent side bet. And taking a look at the goal line, it's no more than a single goal in this game considering the price on offer.
