Last season their Europa League adventure ended in the group stage.

Feyenoord are on a winning streak away after three games, as mentioned below. A maximum 6 points in the bag from 2 travels in the Eredivisie. Things are running smoothly for Feyenoord who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 19 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Ajax.

Feyenoord played 1-1 against Sparta Rotterdam in their previous match. Preceding that game was the away Eredivisie victory against Willem II with the score of 4-1.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Feyenoord manager D. Advocaat as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against RKC Waalwijk.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Feyenoord has managed 6 goals and let in 1 from 2 matches.

The UEFA Europa League, abbreviated as UEL and commonly referred to as just the Europa League, is an annual football club competition organised by UEFA. It is the second-tier competition for football clubs in Europa, beneath the UEFA Champions League in value and importance. Teams qualify through their performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. Some teams qualify from the Champions League; more precisely the teams who are knocked out in the playoff qualifying round and the third-place finishers of the group stage. The winner of the Europa League qualifies for the Champions League in their next competitive season.
