Volendam and Jong FC Utrecht meet in clearly different circumstances. The hosts have just drawn 1-1 at home in their latest match, while the visitors have just lost 1-2 at home for the third match in a row. This game is therefore one where the hosts have reason to push for three points at their own ground. Volendam this season have scored 23 and conceded 18 in 11 matches. Their style is a team that dominates possession and creates chances consistently, but the defence still shows gaps from time to time. Jong FC Utrecht, meanwhile, have already lost eight of eleven matches, and in their last five matches they have lost by a margin of one goal or more in three of them. A defence that has already conceded 25 goals reflects that they cannot keep up with opponents when put under sustained pressure. If Volendam can dominate possession and push high as usual, Jong FC Utrecht will have to defend deep and wait to counter, a situation the hosts are more comfortable with. The first half is likely to be a period where the hosts control the game and create more chances, but the second half may open up as the visitors have to take more risks going forward to chase goals, and that is the period where Volendam should find the moment to close out the game.
