Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Match outcome: FC Twente to win — 1.25
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Total goals: Under 2.5 — 2.64
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: First half outcome: FC Twente to win — 1.63
Despite playing four draws in their last five Eredivisie matches, FC Twente are likely to win this game because Volendam do not have enough quality in their squad.
This game could end with less than three goals because four of FC Twente’s last five matches ended with under 2.5 goals and three of Volendam’s last four games ended with under 2.5 goals.
Despite playing four draws in their last five Eredivisie matches, FC Twente could win in the first half because they won in the first half in their last Eredivisie game against Groningen.
Twente are eager to bounce back to winning ways, having succumbed to three Eredivisie draws on a bounce. However, they have a chance to do so against Ajax in the KNVB Cup this week but that fixture isn’t a winnable one, hence their chance to bounce back to winning ways could wait until this weekend when they host Volendam. FC Twente have one win and four draws in their last five Eredivisie matches, and as a result they are slowly moving away from challenging for the title. They occupy the 5th position with 37 points after 20 games and are six points behind league leaders, Feyenoord.
Volendam are unbeaten in their last three matches despite coming up against the likes of Ajax and AZ Alkmaar. Volendam were forced to finish the remainder of the second half with ten men against AZ Alkmaar but they stood firm to a 1-1 draw. Despite their recent form, they remain in the danger zone in the 15th position with 17 points after 20 games.
Volendam may have managed draws against Ajax and AZ Alkmaar but they are likely to succumb to a tight defeat to FC Twente, who are unbeaten in their last five Eredivisie games.
I’d definitely go for a comfortable win for FC Twente, they are playing at home.
FC Twente are the favourites to win the game, and backing them to win or draw is the safest tip for this game.
