Feyenoord form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Feyenoord's two home games in the Eredivisie so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Stadion Feijenoord.

A strong away win for Feyenoord against FC Utrecht the last match, as Minteh, Giménez (2), Ueda and Stengs were on target. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Feyenoord played a great game against FC Utrecht and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. Giménez has beaten the opponent goalkeeper in three matches in a row. Ace! Midfield player Ivanušec got a match rating of 8.42 in that game, the max score being 10. Ivanušec served one assist, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 5 of 6 times and had 32 successful passes (of 39 total).

Before that game, the 6-1 home victory against Almere City.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Champions League game versus Celtic in only three days. This game is also played here at Stadion Feijenoord.

Early season league goal statistics from Feyenoord's 2 home games: {6 goals}, 1 conceded.

SC Heerenveen form and stats

Things could have gone better for SC Heerenveen in their Eredivisie away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

SC Heerenveen lost away at Go Ahead Eagles (2-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Bochniewicz was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.84. The defender Bochniewicz won 10 of 15 duels.

A 1-3 loss hosting Sparta Rotterdam before that.

It's early days yet, but SC Heerenveen has scored 4 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Feyenoord have pulled off a sequence of 5 consecutive games without defeat (4-1-0) when playing SC Heerenveen.
