Excelsior Volendam betting prediction
 Excelsior |
|  Volendam |
Betting suggestion:
This is the most anticipated match not only of the round but of the entire 2024/2025 Eerste Divisie season so far. The direct clash will determine the leader of the league and the symbolic title of first-half champions of the season. Excelsior and Volendam both boast excellent offensive records, which has led to high expectations for an exciting game. A draw will allow Excelsior to maintain their lead, but it seems to us that the market is giving the home team an exaggerated sense of favouritism, especially since Volendam comes into this match on the back of 8 wins and 2 draws in their last 10 matches, and in their last 7 away games, they have secured 4 wins and 3 draws. Considering this, we will bet on the Double Chance in favour of the visitors, meaning a draw or a Volendam victory.
Preview
Excelsior and Volendam meet at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion, in a match for the 19th round of the Eerste Divisie. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 4 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 12‑04‑2024, in a match for the Eredivisie, Excelsior won by (4‑0). The goals of the match were scored by Lazaros Lamprou (43' and 67' ), Lance Duijvestijn (41' ) and Troy Parrott (55' ) for Excelsior. The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since Excelsior presents significant differences between home and away results.
Analysis Excelsior
The home team is currently in the 1st position of the league, with 36 points won, after 11 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Jong Ajax, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in an away match against FC Emmen, by (1‑1). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses in away matches; against 12 wins and 3 losses at their stadium. In the last 8 home league matches Excelsior has a record of 7 wins and 1 loss, so they have won 21 points out of 24 possible. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 2‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 6 of their 18 matches for this competition, but have been able to turn the score around in 2.
Excelsior need a draw to defend their lead in the 2024/2025 Eerste Divisie in this direct clash, but a victory would give them a 4-point advantage over Volendam. The team is unbeaten in their last 6 matches, with 4 wins and 2 draws, and boasts the best home record in the league (87% win rate, with 21 points from 8 games). Excelsior has the third-best attack in the league (38 goals scored overall, averaging 2.1 goals per match), with even better numbers at home (21 goals scored, averaging 2.6 goals per game). The team also has the second-best defence in the league (19 goals conceded) and ranks second in clean sheets (they have kept 7 clean sheets). Excelsior are the third-highest in terms of shots in the Eerste Divisie, averaging 16.4 shots per game. Coach Ruben den Uil may opt to repeat his previous starting lineup, based on a 4-2-3-1 tactical setup, as his absentees remain centre-back Kik Pierie, who has been injured since the 14th round (played on 08-11-2024), and left-winger Jacky Donkor, who was injured in the 17th round (played on 29-11-2024). The standout player of the squad is Calvin Raatsie, the second-least conceded goalkeeper (averaging 0.9 goals conceded per game, having let in 15 goals in 16 matches) and second in clean sheets (he was on the pitch for all 7 games in which Excelsior kept a clean sheet).
Confirmed Lineup: Calvin Raatsie, Ilias Bronkhorst, Casper Widell, Django Warmerdam, Arthur Zagre, Lennard Hartjes, Lance Duijvestijn, Noah Naujoks, Cedric Hatenboer, Seydou Fini, Derensili Sanches Fernandes.
Coach: M. Dijkhuizen.

Volendam need a victory in this direct clash to take the lead in the 2024/2025 Eerste Divisie. The team is in excellent form, unbeaten in their last 10 matches with 8 wins and 2 draws, and primarily relies on the best attack in the league (42 goals scored overall, averaging 2.3 goals per match). Specifically, away from home, Volendam also has the best offensive numbers (20 goals scored in 9 appearances, averaging 2.2 goals per game away). The team is the highest in terms of shots in the competition (averaging 16.8 shots per game) and also the best at shooting (6.6 shots on target per match, on average). Coach Rick Kruys has no known absentees and will likely repeat his previous starting lineup, based on a 4-2-3-1 tactical setup, with standout players including left-back Yannick Leliendal (third-highest in tackles in the league, averaging 3.4 tackles per game), right-winger Bilal Ould-Chikh (the assist leader in the 2024/2025 Eerste Divisie with 8 assists in 18 appearances), and particularly strikers Robert Mühren and Henk Veerman, both sharing the league's top scorer spot (11 goals scored). As a result, Veerman has become the most involved player in goals in the competition (11 goals scored and 7 assists in 18 matches), while Mühren follows closely as the second-most contributive player (11 goals and 3 assists in 18 appearances), and is also the second-best shooter in the league (averaging 1.6 shots on target per game).
Confirmed Lineup: Kayne van Oevelen, Deron Payne, Xavier Mbuyamba, Mawouna Amevor, Yannick Leliendal, Nordin Bukala, Alex Plat, Milan de Haan, Henk Veerman, Robert Muhren, Bilal Ould-Chikh.
Coach: W. Jonk.
