The Eredivisie weekend opens tonight in Volendam. The team of trainer Wim Jonk will take on Go Ahead Eagles in their own stadium. A match that you can follow directly on the radio at NH Sport. Just like Almere City FC – Telstar in the first division. Kick-off in both stadiums is at 8 p.m.
After two hefty defeats against PSV (7-1) and Sparta Rotterdam (4-0), the Volendam team dropped into the relegation zone. For Jonk there is no reason to panic in the least. He does not want to call the confrontation with Go Ahead, which has not yet won a single point in this competition, as ‘crucial’. “That is ranking journalism”, according to the always sober Volendammer.
It is clear that Xavier M’Buyamba makes its debut tonight. The 1.95 meter tall central defender was taken over from Chelsea just before the transfer window closed and has been brought in to support the defence. From the almost sold-out Volendam stadium, Frank van der Meijden the commentary.

The other match that you can follow in NH Sport is Almere City FC against Telstar. Last season, this mutual encounter ended in 1-1. Glynor Plet opened the scoring and Radinio Balker scored the equalizer in the last minute. The Amsterdam-born defender will not be there tonight; he made a nice transfer to FC Groningen last summer, where he played everything so far.
Based on the current ranking, Telstar and Almere City FC do not differ much from each other. The team of trainer Alex Pastoor has six points and took them all in Almere. Telstar collected four points. You can hear from Erik-Jan Brinkman whether the Velsenaren are going to skip Almere City FC tonight.
