Eredivisie Schedule This Week Feyenoord vs Utrecht Live Mola TV
Feyenoord is currently in second place in the 2024 Dutch League standings with 62 points. They are 10 points adrift of PSV who are firmly at the top of the standings. This means that Feyenoord must achieve victory after victory in the remaining eight weeks.
Feyenoord should have won this week. They have a good trend: unbeaten in the last five matches in all competitions, including the KNVB Beker or Dutch Cup. Four of these matches were even won by Feyenoord.
Apart from that, Feyenoord must be able to take advantage of the moment when PSV has to visit NEC Nijmegen headquarters this week. NEC itself is in sixth position and is still competing to win tickets to Europe. This means that the match in Nijmegen will not be easy for PSV.
However, Arne Slot as Feyenoord coach is reluctant to underestimate Utrecht. The visiting team has the potential to make things difficult in the match if the squad is not alert. Moreover, playing matches after the international break often presents its own problems for each club.
“Utrecht is often ranked in the top six, seventh or eighth and is an opponent that often makes things difficult for us. This match is also the first after the international break so the players still have to find their rhythm again,” said Slot on the club’s official website.
Utrecht is currently in eighth place with 36 points. This position is a zone play-off for Dutch teams to qualify for the Conference League next season.
The Eredivisie provides a share play-off to occupants ranked 5-8 in the final standings. The four teams will fight again for one ticket to the tournament play-off Conference League. Last season, Utrecht competed with three other teams but failed to win the ticket.
To be able to survive in this zone, Utrecht must continue to achieve positive results. This is because Utrecht is only two points ahead of Fortuna Sittard in ninth position. Therefore, victory will remain Utrecht’s goal in Rotterdam later.
“Feyenoord are clearly favorites in this match. But we really want to win,” said Jans on the official Utrecht website.
