FC Volendam

Form: DLDLL

Volendam, who are in contention for relegation this season, still hang on to the faintest of hopes that they can still experience a turn in fortunes down the line in their fight for survival, a belief even Regillio Simons firmly embraces.

In their most recent match, they managed to salvage a crucial point against Almere City away from home as substitute Robert Mühren netted a goal in the eleventh hour to guide his side to a hard-fought 1-1 draw. However, this extended their winless run in the league to eleven matches (L7 D4), and they are still searching for their first win since December 16th, 2023.

With 15 points accumulated from 27 matches played, FC Volendam occupies the 18th spot in the Eredivisie standings within the relegation zone and is eight points adrift of safety.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Backhaus; Buur, Benamar, Flint, Cox; Mirani, Le Roux, Maulun; Booth, Muhren, Johnson

Feyenoord

Form: WWWDW

Feyenoord, on the other hand, were on the brink of a disastrous outcome at home in their match against FC Utrecht, conceding two goals in the first half. However, they managed to keep their composure after experiencing a reversal in fortune, which saw them come from two goals down to eke out a resounding 4-2 victory.

Arne Slot's men have been in good form in the league, where they have gone thirteen matches without suffering defeat (W10 D3). They aim to build on that momentum to secure a comfortable win away from home, especially considering they are currently on an eight-match unbeaten run (W7 D1).

With 65 points accumulated from 27 matches played, Feyenoord sits in second place in the Eredivisie standings, nine points ahead of third-placed FC Twente and ten points adrift of first-placed PSV Eindhoven, who have played one more game than them. 

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Wellenreuther; Geertruida, Beelen, Hancko, Nieuwkoop; Wieffer, Zerrouki, Timber; Minteh, Gimenez, Paixao

Expert Betting Tips

Feyenoord showcased their grit last time out against FC Utrecht, overturning a two-goal deficit to secure a convincing victory, extending their unbeaten run in the league to thirteen matches. They enter this match brimming with confidence and motivated to secure their fourth consecutive league victory.

Considering Arne Slot's men have been in much better form than their opponents, there's no doubt they'll come out on top in a match they are expected to win comfortably. However, given the away side's vulnerability at the back, we expect to see goals at both ends of the pitch, as this has been the case in four of their last seven meetings.
