Dutch Eredivisie: FC Volendam – Fortuna Sittard

Your Web 3 Guru and Moonbet presenting todays match: FC Volendam against Fortuna Sittard

FC Volendam is making concerted efforts to shift focus away from their less-than-impressive sporting performances. Under the guidance of new coach Regillio Simons, they managed to secure a point in the battle for retention during the away game against Heracles Almelo, following a home defeat against Almere City. However, recent off-field developments have once again stirred up noise and distraction. The club’s new board is demanding significant sums of money from all individuals associated with ‘Team Wim Jonk,’ further dampening the mood.

FC Volendam can count themselves fortunate that bottom-placed Vitesse is grappling with an existential crisis, and the gap with RKC Waalwijk was only two points before the latest round. This makes a potential escape via the playoffs a plausible scenario for prolonging their stay in the Eredivisie. The group of teams in 15th place and above already enjoys a margin of seven points or more.

Their upcoming opponent, Fortuna Sittard, also finds itself in the vast middle group of the Eredivisie, accumulating 20 points from the first 18 matches. The team led by coach Danny Buijs secured an impressive number of points in the early phase of the competition in their home matches, amassing 17 points in nine games. A recent draw in the rescheduled midweek match against Almere City FC contributed to their third point on foreign soil.

In the cup tournament, the Limburgers are on a remarkable streak. Victories against Sparta Nijkerk (0-1), FC Eindhoven (0-2), and Almere City FC (1-2) have propelled Danny Buijs’ team to the quarterfinals of the TOTO KNVB Beker. They will face another away game on Thursday, February 8, traveling to Euroborg with FC Groningen as the opponent. Until then, matches against Volendam away and Heerenveen at home serve as preparatory fixtures.

Players to watch: At FC Volendam, Lequincio Zeefuik (D3, A1) secured a summer transfer to AZ, scoring three times in the last four official matches. For Fortuna Sittard, Kaj Sierhuis (D5, A1) is in good form with seven goals in the last nine competitive matches.

Hot stat: In the head-to-head matches between Fortuna Sittard and FC Volendam, the home team has consistently emerged victorious over the past eight years. In 2015, both clubs secured away victories against each other.
