2.27Tip and bets
The hosts managed to start the season with a win and are certainly planning to build on their success. The visitors have not been playing well since last season, and Almere City started this championship with a defeat. The visitors can put up a fierce fight against their opponents, but if Fortuna plays like they did in the first round, three points are guaranteed.
Our prediction is a victory for Fortuna at 1.75
Bet on total
The teams are roughly equal in strength and feel that they can take three important points here, so we will probably see a double-edged game. Face-to-face matches between the rivals often turn out to be productive, so we should expect another goal-scoring extravaganza.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.82
Bet on corners
The opponents will fight only for victory, so it will definitely not be boring here. High totals will be broken by many indicators and corners are unlikely to be an exception.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners with odds of 1.62
