FC Eindhoven form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what FC Eindhoven have to build on here at Jan Louwers Stadion in the Eerste Divisie. Three consecutive losses here at Jan Louwers Stadion is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Eindhoven travelled for their previous game, a trip to Telstar that ended 1-1. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at NAC Breda.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (25 in 12 games), FC Eindhoven's attacking play is working. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Eindhoven have conceded 22 from these games.

FC Volendam form and stats

FC Volendam have an excellent away record in the Eerste Divisie so far with 6-4-1 from 11 games.

Volendam go into this game after a win, the home game against Jong Ajax that ended 3-2. The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Excelsior.

What a finish in the last match, as Volendam came back from being down 0-2 and secured a very satisfying victory through Zakaria El Azzouzi's goal in the 90th minute. Volendam goalie Joey Roggeveen was high and low in the Jong Ajax game, contributing seven saves towards the victory. Zakaria El Azzouzi came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Jong Ajax last time out, making the manager W. Jonk feel like a tactical genius. Late drama in the previous game, when Zakaria El Azzouzi scored the winning goal six minutes into stoppage time to defeat Jong Ajax.

The schedule is very tough for Volendam now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Eerste Divisie game at Almere City is waiting in only four days.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Volendam are regular goalscorers on their travels. 14 goals have been conceded by FC Volendam in these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
