Willem II-FC Volendam preview

After the 2-0 victory over Almere City, Willem II’s manager made it clear he wasn’t happy with the format of the play-offs. ‘His’ Willem II have already played four matches, while FC Volendam only need to survive one round. On the other hand, you could argue that the Tilburg side have found their confidence and can go into the match against the Palingboeren with their chests out. Because three wins in four matches and just one goal conceded show that the Brabanders are in good form. Will it be enough to get a good result at the Koning Willem II Stadion?

FC Volendam performed well for a long time in the Eredivisie. Rick Kruys’ team were promoted from the Keuken Kampioen Divisie last year and picked up impressive points at home against PSV and Ajax. However, the last few weeks at De Dijk have been nothing but misery. Although they beat Heracles Almelo, it wasn’t enough to escape the dreaded 16th place. They came very close to direct survival on Sunday, leading 1-0 against direct rival SC Telstar for a long time. However, the visitors from Velsen-Zuid won 2-1 and condemned the orange shirts to the play-offs. Will they live up to their favourite status against Willem II? Here are our Willem II - FC Volendam betting tips.

Willem II-FC Volendam prediction

We have full confidence in a good result for Willem II. The Kruikenzeikers have won eight of their last nine matches and have their defence particularly well organised. Add to that the fact that FC Volendam have only scored twice in their last five head-to-head matches against Willem II. For this reason, we believe the low-scoring FC Volendam will not find the net in Tilburg.

FC Volendam under 0.5 goals gives you odds of 3.30.

Willem II-FC Volendam betting tip

It stands out that Willem II are now known as a team that likes to keep control of the match. This is clearly reflected in their recent results. In the four play-off matches, there were never more than two goals scored. With a solid Willem II and a struggling-to-score FC Volendam, we therefore expect under 2.5 goals.

This gives you odds of 2.12.
