Preview, Possible Lineups, and Team News
Volendam
The goal for Volendam at the start of the season was to try and secure the continuation of their development in the Eredivisie. Of course, the management knew that it is going to be a battle to remain in the top division, Volendam, after all, has one of the youngest squads in the league with an average age of just over 22 years old. Their struggles are especially seen in the defense department where they have conceded 39 times, by far the highest number in the league. Last week they finally managed to win their first away game, they were the last team to do so, and they did it against Cambuur which is the only team in the league that is worst than them in the rankings. Francesco Antonucci and Calvin Twigt are doubtful to play against RKC.
Possible lineup: Stankovic, Mbuyamba, Benamar, Mirani, Buur, Da Silva, Eiting, Murkin, Ould-Chikh, Oristanio, Muhren.
RKC Waalwijk
They have managed to win only four times this season in 15 games, but they are still close to the middle of the table with a seven-point cushion in front of the relegation-threatened teams. This is the second straight season when RKC is playing almost the same way. They found out how to stay in the Eredivisie by playing to their potential. RKC is not an exciting team when it comes to their offensive prowess, but their games are mostly entertaining with a lot of goals being scored. They lost three out of their last five matches and will look to get a victory against one of the worst teams in the league. They have a more experienced squad, especially at this level of play. Regarding the availability for this match, Julen Lobete and Michiel Kramer are a doubt, but Iliass Bel Hassani is coming back to action after missing last week's game through suspension.
Possible lineup: Vaessen, Lutonda, Nieuwpoort, Van den Buijs, Adewoye, Lelieveld, Clement, Anita, Oukili, Seuntjens, Bel Hassani.
Starting lineups
