NEC Nijmegen

- Venue: Kras Stadion
This week, NEC Nijmegen, in their impressive form this season, will be aiming to maintain their momentum when they go up against Volendam, who are favorites for relegation.
Last season, after returning to the Eredivisie for the first time in 14 years, Volendam managed to avoid relegation. However, it seems unlikely they will be able to do the same this time. They currently sit at the bottom of the league table with a mere 13 points from 23 games and haven’t won a match in their last seven attempts. Despite this, they can find some comfort in the fact that two of their only three victories this season took place at Kras Stadion, which is their home ground. The team is led by Regillio Simons.
Meanwhile, NEC is enjoying a remarkable season in the premier division of Holland. Currently in seventh place, if they maintain their position, it will be their best standing in the league since 1976. Rogier Meijer’s team continued their impressive performance, beating Cambuur in the midweek and securing a spot in the KNVB Cup final for the fifth time in their history. They are expected to secure a win, and with it three points, this Friday.
FC Volendam vs NEC Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
This season, the greatest shortfall of Volendam has been their defence. The team led by Regillio Simons has allowed more goals than any other team in this division this season, entering this weekend’s game with a streak of seven games in a row without a clean sheet. In three of their last four clashes, a minimum of four goals were netted.
NEC’s defence is superior to that of the hosts, but they’ve been letting in a significant number of goals in recent away games, according to Rogier Meijer. During their last four away games in the Eredivisie league, the visitors let in exactly two goals each time, with only one game ending with less than 2.5 goals.
