Excelsior head into this clash with renewed confidence after back-to-back wins over Utrecht and Groningen, leaving them just one point away from securing survival. As Excelsior have been in a much better form of late than FC Volendam, we predict a 2-1 home win. Despite a poor overall run (0.80 points per game in the last 10), the Rotterdammers average 3.10 total goals per match, with 70% of games seeing both teams score. Defensively, they concede 1.60 goals per game and have managed just one clean sheet in that stretch. The hosts are nearly at full strength, with forward Miliano Jonathans the only confirmed absentee.
Relegation-threatened visitors, on the other hand, are struggling for consistency, also averaging 0.80 points per game across their last 10 fixtures. Volendam score just 0.90 goals per match while conceding 1.60, and have failed to score in 50% of those games. Their expected goals against stands at a worrying 2.02, highlighting defensive vulnerability. Midfielder Nordin Bukala is suspended, further limiting their options.
Considering Excelsior's better momentum and home advantage, Home Win is our main betting tip for this relegation six-pointer, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Both sides’ matches frequently produce high totals).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 10 May 2026 at 15:45.
