Sports Mole previews Saturday's Eredivisie clash between NEC and FC Volendam, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.
Sports Mole

Having secured morale-boosting wins last time out, NEC and FC Volendam will seek to pick up where they left off when the sides square up at Goffertstadion on Saturday.

The visitors will have one eye on exacting revenge on their hosts this weekend following a disappointing 4-1 defeat in August's reverse fixture.


Match preview

NEC recorded a first victory since the middle of January as they emphatically thrashed SBV Excelsior 3-0 at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion on Saturday night.

Rogier Meijer's men opened the scoring through Magnus Mattsson, after which goals from Souffian El Karouani and Anthony Musaba put the game to bed.

Consequently, the Eniesee have moved up to 10th in the Eredivisie table, sitting just two points adrift of a place in the top half.

Lying in store next is the challenge of an opposing outfit who have won just one of the most recent 15 meetings between the teams across all competitions.

Currently on an 11-match unbeaten run in front of their fans, Saturday's hosts have been impressive on home turf and will back themselves to pick up another positive result.

In one of the shock results of matchday 22, Volendam got the better of Vitesse on Saturday evening courtesy of a 2-0 triumph at the Kras Stadion.

Despite being on the back foot for large spells of the clash, Wim Jonk's men found the back of the net in both halves through Daryl van Mieghem, and that was enough to get the job done.

With 20 points amassed from 22 league matches this term, Het Andere Oranje have moved three points clear of relegation danger and now occupy 14th place in the standings.

Ahead of a crucial battle at the bottom against FC Emmen seven days later, Saturday's visitors will be aiming to put some daylight between them and the drop zone.

Team News

Off the back of his impressive two-goal haul against Vitesse, Volendam forward Daryl van Mieghem is definitely one to keep an eye on here.

January arrival Florent Da Silva had to make do with a place on the bench in the aforementioned game, but he will be targeting a return to the XI this time around.

NEC's Antony Musaba could be rewarded with a place in the starting lineup after the 22-year-old came off the bench to score for a second time since the turn of the year.

Mathias de Wolf remains out of contention for the home side due to a muscle problem, while Robin Roefs continues to battle with a long-term knee problem.

NEC possible starting lineup:
Cillessen; El Karouani, Sandler, Marquez, Verdonk; Schone, Proper; Mattsson, Bruijn, Tavsan; Dimata

FC Volendam possible starting lineup:
Stankovic; Murkin, Flint, Mirani, Mbuyamba, Plat; Antonucci, Da Silva, Eiting, Twigt; Van Mieghem


We say: NEC 1-1 FC Volendam

Volendam are slightly the more in-form team heading into the clash, but NEC have been rock-solid on their own patch of late. We are backing the sides to match each other stride for stride and settle for a point apiece in the end.
