The defense suffered the assaults of the rival team by coming out significantly downsized in the duels on the field. The worst in the department is Benaissa Benamar, constantly struggling in the face of the incursions of the opposing attackers. The performance of the entire team suffers from its lapses in concentration.

With an average ball possession of 41% per game in the current league, FC Volendam cannot call itself a team that holds the game in its hands, rather it prefers the counterattacking strategy. But if they want to try to win the game against FC Emmen they must try to impose their game to create difficulties for their opponents.

The adaptation of Alex Plat with the new jersey has not been the best. He had another disappointing performance in FC Volendam last game of the season, against De Graafschap. In the clash, the midfielder failed to be effective and did little for the team. Despite the good expectations for the player, his performance is starting to worry.

The teams are still getting familiar, and there is no interest in maintaining any specific result due to the leaderboard.
