Hardijk was able to secure the draw 4-4 in the game against Spakenburg after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Before that game, the 4-2 home victory against Lisse.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (35 in 16 games), HHC's attacking play is working. On the other hand, HHC have conceded 18 goals.

Volendam won their last game, 4-3 versus Rijnsburgse Boys played at home. That victory was so crucial for this club, after a horrific period of twelve league matches in a row not winning. An off the wall fixture with masses of goals last time out for Volendam II, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that fun game, will this fixture be as gleeful? Wouter came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Rijnsburgse Boys last time out, making the manager Musampa feel like a tactical genius.

Preceding that match was the 3-3 draw at home vs IJsselmeervogels.

Take note that 10 of this side's 12 latest league rounds have ended with at least three goals.
