THE PREDICTION
Since their infamous 13-0 home defeat to Ajax in October, VVV-Venlo have begun to improve. Prior to that hammering, they hadn’t won since the opening day of the season; since then, they have won in the KNVB Cup First Round as well as getting their second league victory of the season. However, they have continued to concede and have been heavily reliant on Greek striker Giorgos Giakoumakis. His eight goals are responsible for six of their eight points in the Eredivisie this season. PEC Zwolle’s season has been hampered yet helped by five draws in their opening nine matches. Zwolle have been ahead in three of those five draws but were fortunate to profit from a Jaroslaw Jach own goal against relegation threatened Fortuna Sittard to contribute towards a point after being behind. Such are the fine margins in their season so far, those three leads that they lost would’ve left them level on points with AZ Alkmaar who are in the play-offs for Europa League qualification. Even outside of the anomalous 13-0 defeat to Ajax, VVV’s games have involved 29 goals in eight matches. The relatively high-scoring and absolutely high-conceding home side will be confident they can once again look to Giakoumakis for inspiration against a side that are winless away from home this season.
