Sparta Rotterdam welcome Volendam in the KNVB Beker aiming to build on their recent 2-0 Eredivisie victory over Heracles. As Sparta are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict a 3-0 win for the Rotterdammers. Doubts remain over Santos and van Crooij, but the return of defender Shurandy Sambo gives the hosts a timely boost. Sparta’s form has been strong, winning four of their last five, and their underlying numbers support that momentum: they average 1.76 expected goals overall and have kept three clean sheets across that run. Their home output remains consistent, scoring in four of their last five matches at Het Kasteel.
Volendam, on the other hand, do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team suffering five straight league defeats, including a narrow 1-0 loss to AZ Alkmaar where both Veerman and Yah picked up knocks. Their away record is particularly concerning, producing just 0.60 points per game and conceding 2.20 goals per away fixture. The xGA trend highlights the defensive issues, with Volendam allowing 2.46 expected goals on average when travelling. Historically, Sparta have also held the upper hand, winning 10 of the last 22 meetings.
Given Sparta's stronger form and superior metrics, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, with additional value on Over 2.5 goals and Sparta Over 1.5.
This KNVB Cup match will be played on Thursday 15 January 2026 at 20:00.
