FC Volendam-Willem II preview

After the 1-2 defeat against SC Telstar, everyone who loves FC Volendam was devastated. Surely they weren’t going to relegate after just one season — something that has happened far too often in the past. What followed was an impressive 2-1 victory in Brabant, meaning Rick Kruys’ team are now in a strong position and only need a draw. They will, however, need to be more clinical with their chances, as they could easily have won by a bigger margin. Will the Palingboeren finish the job at home?

At least two Willem II players will have woken up in a cold sweat after Wednesday night. Thanks in large part to two major defensive blunders in Tilburg, John Stegeman’s side were already 0-2 down after just 17 minutes. They fought back nicely to 1-2 shortly after half-time, but they were lucky it didn’t end up worse. Can Willem II take control of the game this time and put FC Volendam under pressure? Or will they sit back and wait for counter-attacking opportunities? Here are our FC Volendam - Willem II betting tips.

FC Volendam-Willem II prediction

You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to realise that FC Volendam have the best chances. Not for nothing were they by far the better team in Tilburg on Wednesday. We believe they will get the job done, especially because Willem II will have to step out of their comfort zone and play on the front foot. This always brings risks, which is why we expect a home victory.

FC Volendam to win gives you odds of 2.35.

FC Volendam-Willem II betting tip

One of the standout players for FC Volendam is Anthony Descotte. The loanee from Belgian side Charleroi has been very impressive in recent weeks and scored an important goal against SC Telstar. Against Willem II he came close to scoring several times and it was almost a miracle he didn’t end up on the scoresheet. We think he’ll be sharp this time and score at least one goal.

Anthony Descotte to score gives you odds of 3.45.
