Form: DWWWW

Feyenoord took the battle to PSV Eindhoven at the Philips Stadion last time out, as they salvaged a point in a thrilling 2-2 draw. This saw them extend their unbeaten run against the runaway leaders to two matches following a significant victory in the KNVB Beker quarterfinals in January, eking out a 1-0 victory at home. 

The Pride of the South enter this match brimming with confidence considering they have suffered a solitary defeat in their last fifteen matches across all competitions (W10 D4), although this defeat was a devastating blow, losing on penalties to AS Roma in the Europa League playoffs. De Kuip has reigned supreme as an indomitable presence, where besides a five-match unbeaten run (W3 D2), Arne Slot's wards record a solitary defeat in their last twelve matches (W8 D3), and such a commendable performance could see them maintain their current ten-match unbeaten run in the league.

Having accumulated 56 points in 24 matches played, Feyenoord sits in second place in the Eredivisie standings, six points ahead of third-placed FC Twente and thirteen points behind runaway leaders PSV Eindhoven in first place. 

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Heracles Almelo failed to capitalize on their numerical advantage to secure a hard-fought win against Almere City at home as they had to settle for a 2-2 draw to share the spoils, which in the end was beneficial to their top-flight survival. 

However, despite that outcome, Heraclieden's enter this match lacking in confidence, as they currently are on a three-match winless run (L2 D1) in the league, and not only that, but they have clinched just two wins in their last eleven matches (L7 D2), accumulating 8 points from a possible 33. With a three-match losing streak 

Having accumulated 23 points in 24 matches played, Heracles Almelo sits in 14th place in the Eredivisie standings and has maintained a five-point advantage over the relegation playoffs.

Formation: 3-4-3
