Volendam vs Telstar

VOLLENDAM, Netherlands (Interstat) — Volendam hosts Telstar on Sunday, May 17, 2026, in an Eredivisie matchup that carries contrasting momentum. The game simulator at Interstat projects a 2-1 home victory.

Telstar arrives at Kras Stadion on a three-match unbeaten run. The visitors routed Heracles 3-0 on May 10 and drew 1-1 at NEC on May 2 after a 4-1 thrashing of Jong Sparta on April 22. Prior to that, Telstar lost 4-1 at Utrecht on April 11 and 2-0 at Groningen on April 4. Telstar’s season includes wins over PSV (3-1 on March 22) and NAC Breda (3-0 on Feb. 27), but also losses to Heerenveen (3-0 on March 14) and Feyenoord (2-1 on Feb. 22). Draws with Twente (1-1 on Feb. 15) and Go Ahead Eagles (1-1 on Feb. 8) round out their recent ledger.

Volendam, the home side, earned a 1-1 draw at Excelsior on May 10. That followed a 2-0 win at Heracles on April 26. Before that, Volendam lost 2-1 at home to Twente on April 10, played a scoreless draw with Feyenoord on April 5, and fell 2-0 at Jong Sparta on March 21.

The most recent head-to-head meeting, on Aug. 23, 2025, finished 2-2 in Volendam. That result extended a pattern of tightly contested games. Volendam’s form at home has been inconsistent, with three wins, two draws and two losses in their last seven home league matches. Telstar has shown resilience on the road, taking points from three of their last four away fixtures.

Interstat’s simulator gives Volendam a slight edge, predicting a 2-1 final score. Both teams are mid-table and seeking to finish the season strong. Telstar’s attack, which scored four goals against Jong Sparta, will test a Volendam defense that has kept two clean sheets in its last five matches. Kickoff is at 2:30 p.m. local time.
