Graafschap vs Volendam Prediction & Betting tips
With the Graafschap and Volendam two teams meet each other, which have come out of the negative spiral in the last few weeks. Which team can hold its strong range?
Graafschap :
De Graafschap had slipped away from the subtop after one point in five games, but in the last two weeks, he was able to taste the sweetness of victory again. First of all, the always difficult away game in the Geusselt was won convincingly with 1-3 from MVV, then the Superboeren last week chopped in-house from Jong FC Utrecht: 7-0
After Jong FC Utrecht already missed a penalty after eight minutes via Karim Loukili, the Graafschap took over. A double play by Mark Diemers and a goal by Daryl van Mieghem ensured that the team of Henk de Jong could rest with a comfortable 3-0 lead. In the second half, four more hits were added. Fabian Serrarens used a penalty, Diemers completed his hat-trick and Youssef El Jebli and Tarik Tissoudali brought the score to seven.
Especially the Tarik Tissoudali debut was impressive. The left wing rush is rented from VVV, where after the season he started as a basic player in the last few weeks. He was good for one hit and three assists.
Last week, together with Daryl van Mieghem and Fabian Serrarens, he formed the vanguard trio in the absence of center strikers Sjoerd Ars and Anthony van den Hurk. It is plausible that De Jong does not want to change his team after the win of the season at the young FC Utrecht.
Volendam:
As is known, Volendam knew a truly dramatic start to the season. As a regular participant in the play-offs, the Dutch Team again had the goal this year to play in the season stag. It was initially different: only in the twelfth game, on November 4 against Young PSV, Volendam knew its first victory of the season to book.
The next two games were then immediately lost again, leaving Volendam close at the end of November in the Jupiler League with only one victory in fourteen games. Hereafter came the turnaround: since then, Volendam lost once more. A total of 22 points were achieved from the last nine games. All four league matches in 2018 were won.
For example, Volendam booked a great victory last week at number three Fortuna Sittard. At its own Kras Stadium, Volendam was much stronger than the ex-leader from the Jupiler League and won well over 2-0. The goals were provided by Gijs Smal and Luis Pedro, both players who do not often appear on a score sheet.
Because of the good series of the last few weeks, Volendam even has a view of the playoffs, which the fans could not dream about in late November. With the form of the last weeks and the goal drift by Enzo Stroo, Volendam can currently beat everyone.
Probably Erik Schouten and Rodney Antwi against the Graafschap are back in the team. Schouten had to leave his home last week because of a broken nose, but may be able to make his comeback again on Friday. Antwi was suspended last week, but now available again, which may be at the expense of Luis Pedro.
