Feyenoord Rotterdam

vs

Telstar

Preview

Feyenoord

• Feyenoord currently sit second in the Eredivisie table on 45 points from 23 games.
• Feyenoord have won eight of their 12 home games in the Eredivisie this season, scoring 30 goals, so De Kuip has truly been a fortress this campaign.
• Robin van Persie’s men have built a reputation for playing a high-tempo, possession-based game that probes defenses with positional overloads and aggressive pressing, but the head coach has also made them patient in build-up and tactically flexible with a number of pressing triggers since taking over in February 2025.

Telstar

• Telstar are fighting for their Eredivisie survival in 17th spot after collecting just 18 points from their 23 games.
• Telstar are set up to frustrate their opponents by remaining compact in their defensive shape and looking to transition quickly when the ball is won.
• Anthony Correia’s team have worked hard and shown a lot of heart, but this is likely to be a test of their limits in more ways than one.
• Telstar have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five games, although they have drawn their last two Eredivisie fixtures.

Key Players

• Ayase Ueda is Feyenoord’s star man with 17 goals in 21 Eredivisie games this campaign, but Casper Tengstedt has been in equally good form of late with three of his team’s last seven goals.
• Telstar lack a similar threat in the front line with top-scorer Jeff Hardeveld having four in 23 games this term.

Betting Insights

• Feyenoord are 1.24 favorites against a Telstar side priced at 9.5 for this Sunday’s Eredivisie matchup.
• Over 2.5 goals is 1.44 for this game and the bookmakers are expecting an open game - if there is to be one, it will be because Feyenoord have forced the pace.

Prediction

• Feyenoord have won their last two and haven’t dropped points in their last two home games, so a home win looks the most likely outcome here.
• Given the gulf in attacking threat and form, we’re backing Feyenoord to run wild in Rotterdam on Sunday.
