Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner here, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that PEC Zwolle and NEC will score 2 or more goals between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Johnny Jansen or Rogier Meijer has served up too many 0-0s lately either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.25 equating to roughly a 76% probability.
