Willem II vs Emmen Preview, Predictions & Betting Tips
Willem II have played some scintillating football recently on the back of on-loan Borussia Dortmund striker Alexander Isak. I am backing Isak to keep scoring and taking Willem in the win market at 1.70 for Sunday’s Eredivisie clash with relegation-threatened Emmen at the Koning Willem II Stadion.
Willem II Tilburg Form & Team News
Willem II lost the KNVB Cup final 4-0 to Ajax in their last match but did well to make it that far. Adrie Koster’s men have won five and drawn one of their last nine matches, only losing twice to Ajax and once to PSV.
This record is impressive given that the top two Eredivisie teams have left the rest of the league in their dust. There is no shame in losing to Ajax and PSV but the rest of the Eredivisie is struggling to cope with Willem II and particularly Alexander Isak.
The on-loan Borussia Dortmund striker has netted 12 Eredivisie goals in 14 appearances since joining including seven in his last six league matches. This record means Isak is worth backing in the anytime goalscorer market at 2.05.
Willem II are paying 1.70 for the win against relegation-threatened Emmen and there is value here due to the hosts’ recent form. Willem II have won four of their last six home Eredivisie matches.
FC Emmen Form & Team News
FC Emmen lost 3-0 in an away friendly against Heerenveen in their last match having previously gone down 1-0 away to De Graafschap in the Eredivisie. Emmen’s recent record on the road makes for grim reading as they have lost seven and drawn one of their last eight away matches.
Dick Lukkien’s team is locked in a relegation battle as they currently sit just three points above the playoff spots with two matches remaining. Emmen have been hampered by a long-term injury to Nicklas Pedersen, their joint second highest goalscorer this season.
A surprise Emmen win is paying fairly big odds of 4.75 due to their underdogs tag while a draw can be backed at 4.33.
Willem II vs FC Emmen Head to Head
Willem II and FC Emmen have met five times in the Eredivisie and Eerste Divisie since 2011/12 with Willem winning four matches and Emmen winning one.
Adrie Koster’s men triumphed 2-0 away from home in December thanks to goals from Aras Ozbiliz and Fran Sol. This was their second league win on the bounce against Emmen.
Willem II vs FC Emmen Match Up
Willem II’s Alexander Isak has scored seven goals in his last six Eredivisie matches. Isak poses a major threat to an Emmen defence which has leaked 70 league goals this season.
No Emmen player has scored more than five Eredivisie goals this season with Anco Jansen their top contributor.
