Excelsior, Recent FormThe Excelsior players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Sparta Rotterdam recently, that ended in a 1-0 defeat.
When it comes to attacking power Marinus Dijkhuizen will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 5 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 11 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Having shipped at least a single goal in 14 of their 16 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
Losing 4 of their last 6 matches will concern them, but they have picked up some important points by winning the other 2 of these games.
FC Volendam, Recent FormFC Volendam will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-1 home win against RKC Waalwijk.
Their boss Wim Jonk is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 7 goals scored. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. As defensive records go, they don't have one to celebrate, with at least 1 goal shipped in 14 of their 16 league matches this season.
Losing 4 of their last 6 games will be causing some concern in the Volendam camp, but their 2 wins salvaged some valuable points. So far this season, the bulk of their league games on the road have ended in disappointment, having won just 1 of their first 8 away games.
On an individual basis, Henk Veerman has scored in each of FC Volendam's last 0 league games away from home.
After a good 2-5 win for Excelsior in this pair's last league encounter, FC Volendam will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Excelsior will be confident of finding the net in this one against Het Andere Oranje, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 10 encounters between the two sides. When Volendam visit Roodzwarten in the league, goals tend to happen, with 6 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2 goals per match.
Excelsior have been unbeaten the last 3 times they have faced Volendam in the league.
Robert Mühren is on a hot scoring streak against Excelsior, having scored in each of Volendam's last 1 meetings with them.
Excelsior manager Marinus Dijkhuizen has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Yassin Ayoub (Leg), Jacky Donkor (Knee) and Kik Pierie (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Volendam manager Wim Jonk ahead of this clash, with Francesco Antonucci (Unknown) missing out, which gives Jonk a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
