We said: FC Utrecht 1-0 Almere City

Both sides have struggled from an attacking point of view so far this season, scoring just four goals in their opening six games, so Saturday's match is unlikely to be a high-scoring affair. However, given that they have home advantage, we expect a narrow victory for the hosts, which could move them out of the relegation zone. Read more.
