Form Guide
Feyenoord
WWDWDD 📈
Feyenoord head into this game after a 2-2 Eredivisie drawn game vs PSV Eindhoven.
The only scorer from Feyenoord was Alireza Jahanbakhsh (81', 90'). Anwar El Ghazi (8') and Thorgan Hazard (68') scored for PSV Eindhoven.
Feyenoord have been on a persistent run of goalscoring form, netting every time they’ve gone out to play in their last 6 games.
They’ve managed to rack up 12 during that time while also conceding a total of 5. That kind of pattern won’t necessarily be continued into this game, of course.
NEC
WDWLDL ⚖
Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Go Ahead Eagles in Eredivisie action, NEC will be aiming to make amends here.
Finn Stokkers (35') scored for Go Ahead Eagles.
Rogier Meijer's NEC have seen their goal attempts be successful a total of 8 times in the course of their latest 6 matches. The aggregate of goals that have been scored against them during that same period equals 5.

Prediction
We feel that in this game, NEC have enough to put a goal past this Feyenoord lineup, but that is unlikely to be enough to avoid a loss.
We are anticipating a close game with a 2-1 winning score for Feyenoord when the full-time whistle blows. It’s a very tough call.
