Volendam vs Maastricht Prediction & Betting tips
FC Volendam vs MVV Maastricht would remain the same as the current classification remains a match in the match competition. At Volendam this week Robert Fischer was fired and headed by interim coach Berry Smit and Johan Steur hoped to win the Volendammers again in the Jupiler League. Also at MVV they would win a victory at the Kras Stadium because the Maastricht players knew not to win their last six duels.
Volendam :
After the shameful defeat against Achilles ’29 and last week’s draw against FC Oss (2-2), the canvas has fallen for 48-year-old Robert Molenaar. On March 22, Molenaar announced that he would stop at the end of this season as a coach of the Wijdbroeken but after that announcement, Andre Oranje only won one match and apparently it was a good reason for the club to run Molenaar fire. At FC Volendam, they apparently had no confidence in a good run-off with Molenaar as head coach and the FC Volendam selection was apparently added to something else. ‘In the fourth period, it has proved necessary to take part in the play-offs’, so Molenaar’s resignation was explained this week on the Volendammers website.
With the interim duo Berry Smit and Johan Steur, FC Volendam hopes to conclude this season with promotion to the Eredivisie. The Volendammers are currently fifth in the Jupiler League and are certainly sure of participation in the playoffs for promotion. However, it’s only a question of whether your trainer has to use two matches before the end of the competition, because Molenaar managed to score 59 points with the Wijdbroeken this season. The game of the Other Orange is of course not good at the end of the week and at Volendam, they naturally hope that the trainers change as well as the coach change at Cambuur – with the Leeuwarders, Arne Slot and Sipke Hulshoff also have two trainers for the Group, but they have had longer time to prove themselves.
Probable setup FC Volendam
Verhulst, Schouten, Esseboom, Kok, Evers; Veerman, Van de Heijden, Kwakman; Straw, Tuyp, Van Kippersluis.
Maastricht :
As with FC Volendam, they also talk to MVV to a three-point. The Maastricht players do not need the points because of the ranking in the ranking, but it is nice if you enter the play-offs with a few wins. Last week Friday, the Maastricht fighters did not win in the Jupiler League for the sixth consecutive season. The Star Counters played the same against Fortuna Sittard (1-1) and FC Emmen (2-2) in the last two home matches and Ron Elsen’s team did not know last week of Jong PSV: 2-2. The Sterrendagers hit the Eindhovenians two times ahead, but gave that lead away again.
By the draw against Jong PSV, Elsen’s team is now sure of participating in the playoffs. Still, the MVV supporters will not be happy about their club’s last months. The Maastricht fighters were still near VVV-Venlo championship a few months ago, but the Venlonians have now eighteen points ahead of the Maastricht players. The fact that the Maastricht players only managed to win three of the last sixteen matches actually says enough about the form in which the Starbucks are.
The only light in the last weeks in Elsen’s team is Patrick N’Koyi. The Congolese had to do it often in the first months of this season, with a role as invader at MVV, but since joining Elsen’s base team, it is a good thing for the 27-year-old attacker. N’Koyi knew four times just to find in the last seven games and in all those matches N’Koyi was in the base.
Probable setup MVV Maastricht
Geens, Ciranni, Pereira, Chipers, Labylle; Ippel, Nys, Nwakali, Schroijen; N’Koyi, Pedro.
