We said: FC Volendam 0-2 NEC

Despite a change in the managerial hotseat, Volendam are showing no signs of revival, and it is hard to bet against them suffering defeat once again on Friday. NEC will be buoyed following their KNVB Cup semi-final success on Tuesday night, and we believe that Nijmegen will be able to successfully navigate the quick turnaround to collect maximum points at Kras Stadion.
