Feyenoord
Sparta Rotterdam

  • Sparta Rotterdam are without Joel Ideho, Gjivai Zechiël and Joshua Kitolano here.

Prediction

  • Two teams heading in opposite directions will face off at Stadion Feijenoord on Saturday, as Feyenoord aims to end a four-match winless streak in the Eredivisie while Sparta Rotterdam seeks to extend their unbeaten run to five matches.
  • Feyenoord currently sits in fifth place with 36 points, just one point behind fourth-placed AZ, who hold a spot in the Europa League qualifiers. Their last Eredivisie match ended in a 2-1 defeat against Ajax at Johan Cruijff ArenA, further extending their winless streak.
  • On the other hand, Sparta Rotterdam won their last league match 1-0 at home against Groningen, which allowed them to remain unbeaten in four matches. They currently occupy 16th place with 20 points, just one point away from safety.
  • In their last Eredivisie encounter, held in August at Sparta-Stadion Het Kasteel, the teams drew 1-1. Camiel Neghli scored for Sparta in the 34th minute, while Quinten Timber equalised for Feyenoord in the 60th minute.
  • Feyenoord has dominated this matchup recently, remaining unbeaten in the last 13 Eredivisie matches against Sparta. The last time Sparta secured a league victory over Feyenoord was in March 2017. During this period, Feyenoord have outscored Sparta 33 goals to eight.
  • This season, Timber and Igor Paixão have emerged as key attacking threats for Feyenoord, each scoring five goals and serving as the team's joint top scorers. Paixão has also netted the crucial first goal of the match twice.
  • For Sparta Rotterdam, the leading goal scorers are Tobias Lauritsen and Shunsuke Mito, with five and three goals, respectively.
  • Feyenoord have accumulated 17 points from a possible 27 at home this season across nine Eredivisie matches. Meanwhile, Sparta have recorded three wins, three draws, and four losses in away matches. They are currently on a three-match unbeaten streak away from home, with their last defeat on the road in the Eredivisie occurring in November 2024 against PEC Zwolle.
