Competition: Eredivisie

Market: Zwolle draw no bet

Odds: 1/2 @ 1xBet

Two sides’s who open this Friday’s Eredivisie showdown only separated by their goal difference, Zwolle will welcome Willem II to town.

Starting with the hosts, although Zwolle might still be desperately seeking some kind of Eredivisie stability, Johnny Jansen’s men do appear to have turned somewhat of a recent corner. Eventually settling for a 0-0 stalemate away at Groningen last weekend, the former Heerenveen boss has seen his squad lose just one of their previous five top-flight appearances. Still dreaming of the chance to book a top-half finish among Holland’s elite this year, they have also recorded back-to-back Eredivisie clean sheets for the first time since the start of February. Signing off November with an eye-catching 1-0 victory against Sparta Rotterdam, Friday’s hosts will also be excited by the prospect of making a return to home soil here. Heading into November’s fortnight interval with a stellar 3-1 win against Sittard, Jansen’s camp will be hoping for a repeat performance this weekend. In fact, Zwolle have collected nine points from just their last four Eredivisie showdowns in front of their own supporters.

As for the visitors, only booking their Eredivisie return for this season, Willem II simply have their sights set on extending their top-flight status. However, despite heading into November’s international break with a crucial 2-1 victory against AZ Alkmaar, it appears that might have just been a minor boost for Peter Maes’ men. Suffering last-gasp heartbreak at home against Heerenveen last time out as they eventually fell to a 2-1 loss, the Tricolores are looking over their shoulder at a potential relegation scrap. Signing off November with a routine 2-0 defeat at the hands of Heerenveen, Friday’s guests have recorded just a single victory from any of their previous seven Eredivisie appearances. Shipping a pair of goals in all of their last three top-flight showdowns, Willem II should also be concerned by their most recent battle against Zwolle. Suffering an action-packed 3-2 defeat when they met in March of last year, we are backing a home draw no bet here.

Bet: Zwolle draw no bet against Willem II 1/2 for Friday’s Eredivisie battle @ 1xBet
