We said: SBV Excelsior 1-2 FC Volendam

A closely-fought contest between two sides hoping to climb away from the relegation zone is expected on Friday, and goals could be on the cards considering the defensive frailties that the two teams have shown so far this term. However, the momentum is with Volendam and we feel that they will do enough to secure a third successive Eredivisie victory to boost their hopes of survival. Read more.
