Referee Danny Makkelie takes charge, while our Expert Eredivisie Predictions spotlight a meeting that feels lively from the first whistle.
Feyenoord have scored in all 15 home league matches and average 2.33 goals there, yet they also concede 1.40. Groningen arrive unbeaten in 5 overall games, with 11 points from that run, so this one hardly screams routine. It feels trickier than the table first suggests.

Match Preview
Feyenoord’s home numbers are loud. They average 2.33 goals, 19.53 shots, and 7.47 shots on target at De Kuip, while also winning a league high 8.27 corners. That tells its own story: pressure, territory, and long stretches spent pinning opponents back in their own half.
Still, there’s a catch, and it matters here. Feyenoord concede 1.40 goals per home game, and 73% of their home matches have seen both teams score. They attack with real force, but the door rarely stays fully shut. Against lively visitors, that can quickly become the plot.
Team news adds a bit of wobble. Bart Nieuwkoop is out for the season, while Gijs Smal, Givairo Read, Thomas Beelen, In-Beom Hwang, Sem Steijn, and Leo Sauer are all doubtful. Casper Tengstedt, if he starts, brings 3 goals at 0.92 per 90, a sharp little return.
Groningen travel with some bite of their own. They are unbeaten in their last 5 matches, have taken 11 points from that spell, and scored 9 times. Away from home, they average 1.27 goals and 6.53 shots on target in these match stats, which is hardly timid.
There is balance in this side too. Groningen rank 4th for away goals conceded at 1.53 per match and sit 3rd for corners won away at 5.8, so they are not just hanging on. Younes Taha El Idrissi is one to watch, with 4 goals and 6 cards.
That said, Groningen are missing Oskar Zawada, whose 0.91 goals per 90 suggests real impact off limited minutes, and Stije Resink remains doubtful. Even so, Thom van Bergen has 8 league goals, Feyenoord usually score at home, and Expert Eredivisie Predictions still lean toward action at both ends.

Prediction
Prediction: Both Teams to Score @1.55
Both Teams to Score stands out because Feyenoord’s home games have been lively all season. They average 2.33 goals scored and 1.40 conceded at De Kuip, while 73% of those matches have seen both sides score. Add the recent trend, with 4 of their last 5 home games landing BTTS, and it starts to look less like a gamble and more like a pattern.
Groningen are not walking into Rotterdam just to survive. They are unbeaten in 5 matches, have scored 9 goals in that spell, and 4 of their last 5 away games also produced BTTS. Feyenoord should create plenty with 19.53 shots and 7.47 on target at home, but their defensive absences and doubts leave enough uncertainty for Groningen to nick one.
