Sparta Rotterdam vs FC Volendam prediction: NETHERLANDS: Eredivisie betting tips on match 2024-04-27 12:30.
[p]Currently clinging onto a top half position, Sparta Rotterdam has a great chance of qualifying for the postseason European playoffs for a second consecutive season after winning three of their last four matches (L1). Their attackers have been doing well in recent weeks, amassing 12 goals in those four games, and they should look forward to being able to play this Sunday against the club that has conceded by far the most goals conceded in this competition (74).[/p]
[p]Jeroen Rijswijk’s team has to rely mainly on away games for their points this season, although things have been improving at home in recent months. Sparta took points from four of their last five home games (W2, D2) and also came out on top in each of their last four home matches against next opponents FC Volendam. The most recent edition resulted in a booming 4-0 win.[/p]
[p]It will be one hell of a job for Volendam to avoid relegation, but as long as it remains theoretically possible, they have publicly vowed not to give up. They’ve been doing comparatively well lately with two consecutive draws followed by a rare victory, but in the previous round they lost 4-0 to direct competitors Excelsior.[/p]
[p]All in all, the club from the fishing village has managed to win just one of their 14 games this calendar year (W8, D5). The crucial defeat at Excelsior didn’t come as a complete surprise, for it was the sixth time in their last 11 matches that Volendam conceded at least four goals. [/p]
[p]Players to watch: Sparta player Tobias Lauritsen has directly contributed to eight goals in his last eight appearances (G5, A3), whilst Volendam’s Robert Mühren scored three times in his last four games.[/p]
[p]Hot streak: Volendam failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last 19 away games across all competitions. [/p]
