Feyenoord form and stats

Feyenoord was eliminated in the semi-finals last season in the KNVB Beker.

27 points is a decent return from 12 Eredivisie games here at Stadion Feijenoord for Feyenoord. The data says 8 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss. This match is a KNVB Beker match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 3 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses in this competition. Feyenoord has a nice streak going on as they have played 13 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Ajax defeat 130 days ago. Feyenoord has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadion Feijenoord. We remember; it was Heracles.

Feyenoord manager D. Advocaat and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus PSV in the Eredivisie. Ahead of that match, Feyenoord won a home game hosting Fortuna Sittard (2-1).

Feyenoord are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found seven matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won five, drew two and lost zero.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Willem II are coming to town in three days.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (27 in 12 games), Feyenoord's attacking play is working. Feyenoord's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 15 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
