FC Volendam form and stats

4-3-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Eerste Divisie numbers at home for FC Volendam so far this season.

FC Volendam are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus NAC Breda. Before that game, the 6-0 home victory against FC Den Bosch.

Volendam could not believe their lack of luck in the NAC Breda match, as they hit the posts three times in the 0-3 defeat. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Boy Deul for missing a penalty kick versus NAC Breda in the 83rd minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.
