FC Volendam vs NEC Nijmegen Prediction & Betting Tips

FC Volendam vs NEC Nijmegen Match Preview

Volendam host a high-scoring Nijmegen side in a fixture that has produced goals and drama across recent seasons. The hosts enter this round with mixed form, yet their home displays remain competitive. NEC, meanwhile, arrive in strong scoring rhythm and carry momentum from impressive away wins.

Volendam Leaning on Strong Home Performances

Volendam’s home form has been one of their steadier pillars. They are unbeaten in their last four home league games, collecting wins against NAC Breda, Heracles and PEC Zwolle, while also sharing a 1-1 draw with Twente. Their scoring output at home is reliable, with at least two goals netted in three of those matches.

However, their wider form shows inconsistency. Heavy defeats away at Feyenoord and PSV underline their defensive vulnerabilities, even if those issues surface less often on home ground. The hosts still tend to concede, which keeps matches open and high-tempo.

Nijmegen’s Goal Threat Growing Each Week

NEC arrive in superb scoring form. They have won back-to-back away matches, hitting four at Feyenoord and two at Heerenveen earlier in the season. Their overall run features strong home results as well, including a 3-1 win against Sparta Rotterdam and a solid 2-0 against Groningen.

They remain vulnerable at times, shown by the 2-2 draw at PEC Zwolle and setbacks at Utrecht and Heerenveen. Yet their attack consistently produces chances, and their recent head-to-head dominance over Volendam reinforces their confidence. Nijmegen have scored at least three goals in four of the last five meetings.

FC Volendam vs NEC Nijmegen Prediction

NEC Nijmegen & Both teams to score at 3.00 odds is the best bet. The visitors carry clear forward momentum, while Volendam’s home record suggests they will still find a goal. This combination reflects both sides’ trends, NEC’s strong attacking form and Volendam’s knack for scoring but not always controlling matches.

The match also projects a high tempo from start to finish. Volendam’s recent home games regularly produce multiple goals, and NEC’s away form features high-scoring wins and open contests. That makes over 3.5 goals at 2.10 odds a natural follow-up, especially with the head-to-head history bursting with goals across several seasons.
