Best Tip: NEC to win

As the NEC players prepare themselves for this game, the bookies are predicting a win for them. The odds and our pre-match stats below point in that direction too, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) information we factor into our predictive algorithms. The Sportpark De Weeren has not been a happy hunting ground for for FC Volendam in the past, and we we'd back more of the same on Sunday evening. A win / draw / win home win is the bet.
