Excelsior desperately need points on Saturday, May 1 at 8:00 PM in the Eredivisie. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Excelsior come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 4L in last 5). Cambuur, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 2D 0L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Excelsior head into this on the back of a defeat, while Cambuur arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Excelsior and Cambuur have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (5W–0D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Cambuur won 0–4.

Verdict: Cambuur's quality should tell even on the road. Excelsior will push, but the visitors have too much class. Cambuur to win.
