Our Prediction for Maastricht vs Feyenoord
The "Sterrendragers" have struggled in recent years. While they were regulars in the Eredivisie until 2000, they have since been stuck in the Eerste Divisie, the country's second tier. Last season, they finished ninth.
On the other hand, the "Pride of the South" were Eredivisie champions in 2023 but fell short in the 2023/24 campaign, settling for the Dutch Cup title instead.
Under new coach Brian Priske, Feyenoord started the season by winning the Super Cup. However, PSV has already created a significant lead in the Eredivisie, leaving Feyenoord and others to battle for second place. The Rotterdam side recently demolished Heracles 5-2 in their last league match.
In the Champions League, Feyenoord achieved away victories against Girona and Benfica but suffered home defeats to Bayer Leverkusen and Red Bull Salzburg. They also managed a thrilling 3-3 draw with Manchester City after trailing by three goals and defeated Sparta Prague 4-2.
Maastricht has had a slow start to the season, with only a few wins, including victories over PSV-2 in August and Venlo in October. They advanced in the cup by beating Den Bosch and went on a strong unbeaten streak from November, which ended with a 0-2 loss to Den Haag in their most recent league game.
