Eerste Divisie Predictions: Volendam vs Helmond, Excelsior vs Roda: 28/02-03/03

The teams from the third to eighth position are still unclear except for Den Hag, who are ten points ahead. Telstar and Roda are threatening with 38 points in the tenth and 11th positions. Vitesse are still searching for their second point of the season.
