Your Web 3 Guru and Moonbet presenting todays match: FC Volendam – SC Heerenveen
FC Volendam kicks off on Sunday evening in a home game that should bring back the good feeling for the team of coach Regillio Simons. They face sc Heerenveen, precisely the last opponent they defeated in the Eredivisie, which provided some relief in the North Holland village just before the winter break. On December 16, it was 3-2 for the orange shirts, notably in Friesland.
Since then, the world hasn’t become much brighter for Volendam. Along with Vitesse, they are embroiled in a battle for the last two spots in the standings, which both spell bad news: direct relegation. To maintain perspective on the sixteenth place (play-offs for retention), they must pursue teams like RKC. The hard-fought point in the away game at Vitesse was a first step towards that.
SC Heerenveen
Opponent sc Heerenveen seemed to have ended a ‘bumpy road’ two weeks ago with a very welcome 3-2 home victory over Ajax. But a week later, they were tripped up again at home by Go Ahead Eagles, and so it’s ‘all hands on deck’ for the team of coach Kees van Wonderen once more. In 12th place (at the start of round 12), the Frisian team is seven points above the danger zone but also at least four points behind teams vying for European football.
The whole season for Heerenveen has been marked by streaks of many victories, interspersed with long periods without wins. It’s now strongly debated whether the victory over Ajax was an exception in a negative streak or the start of a period where upward steps can be taken. With 8 points from 11 away games, there’s still a lot to gain on foreign soil for the Frisians.
Hot Stats
Players to watch: For Volendam, Bilal Ould-Chikh (2 goals, 5 assists). He was partly responsible for the 13th match point with his goal last weekend. For sc Heerenveen, goalkeeper Mickey van der Hart also failed to keep a ‘clean sheet’ in his third league game of the season. He also conceded a goal in both cup matches.
Hot stat: The last time FC Volendam won a home game against sc Heerenveen was in 1998 (4-1). Since then, the Frisians have won three times in the Eredivisie and once in the KNVB Cup.
