Willem II vs PEC Zwolle preview

Willem II faces PEC Zwolle with a 34% chance of winning compared to Zwolle's 42%. The most likely scoreline is 1-2, which aligns with the expected goals of 2.06 for Willem II and 1.83 for PEC Zwolle. This suggests a competitive match with both teams likely to find the net, as indicated by the model's 74% probability for both teams to score.

However, recent form could influence the outcome. Willem II has lost five of their last six matches, while PEC Zwolle has managed only one win in their last six. This discrepancy in form may impact the predicted scoreline, making the match less predictable than the numbers suggest.
