Feyenoord v FC Volendam

Feyenoord vs Volendam Preview

Feyenoord suffered only their second defeat of this Eredivisie campaign last time out as they failed to get the better of the runaway domestic top flight leaders, PSV, losing 2-1 at home which now sees PSV sitting 10 points clear of their nearest rivals, but Feyenoord have another chance to redeem themselves when second from bottom Volendam visit their Philips Stadion on Thursday night.

Thursday night's hosts have collected 10 wins out of their 14 matches played to date though and they deservedly sit in second spot particularly as they have won five of their seven games both home and away so far this term so they look to be in the driving seat ahead of this upcoming tussle with lowly Volendam.

The bigger picture shows Feyenoord have slipped to just three defeats out of their last 41 league matches in the Dutch top flight which is also a commendable record while also posting five wins from their last six games on home soil at their Philips Stadion which includes scoring three goals or more in four of these six wins as well.

Having lost just twice in their previous 24 games at home and collecting a total of 17 wins in the process, including a 2-1 victory over Volendam in their last meeting at the Philips Stadion, Feyenoord will be confident they can account for their visitors once again on Thursday night.

Volendam find themselves in early trouble down near the foot of the Dutch Eredivisie table as the visitors sit second from bottom in the division and they head into this midweek clash against high-flying Feyenoord on the back of four defeats in their last five matches overall.

Recent losses to Ajax, Sparta Rotterdam, AZ and PEC Zwolle have prevented Volendam from lifting themselves out of the relegation zone where they now trail fourth from bottom club, Almere City, and safety by a five-point margin.

With just two wins throughout the whole of this season's Eredivisie campaign to date, it therefore looks likely that Volendam may have to wait another week until they can gain further points in their quest to avoid the drop as both of their two wins so far this term were registered on home soil at their Kras Stadion.

In addition, Volendam have lost six of their seven away games so far along with picking up just one point from the possible 21 on offer, so this also doesn't bode well for this upcoming trip to Feyenoord.

Feyenoord v Volendam Verdict

Feyenoord have also held the upper hand against Volendam in previous recent exchanges as the hosts have won six out of the last seven meetings and the hosts will look to assert their dominance once again on Thursday night in order to retain their place in the top two of the Eredivisie.
