Sunday's Eredivisie predictions including Ajax vs. Waalwijk

sportsmole.co.uk, 12 February 2023, 06:25
Sparta vs. Go Ahead Eagles (Sunday, 11.15am)

Off the back of three consecutive share of the spoils, Sparta Rotterdam welcome Go Ahead Eagles to the Sparta Stadion Het Kasteel on Sunday afternoon.

Meanwhile, the away side will be aiming to pick up back to back league victories for the first time since September having recently returned to winning ways.

We say: Sparta Rotterdam 2-0 Go Ahead Eagles

Sparta have been solid at the defensive end of the pitch of late, keeping clean sheets in four of their last five games. We fancy them to record yet another shut-out here en route to a comfortable win come the end of the 90 minutes.

Heerenveen vs. Feyenoord (Sunday, 1.30pm)

Heerenveen welcome league leaders Feyenoord to the Abe Lenstra Stadion on Sunday evening.

Kees van Wonderen's side are in eighth position in the standings, while De club aan da Maas are two points clear of their nearest title challengers, AZ Alkmaar, at the summit of the Eredivisie standings.

We say: Heerenveen 1-3 Feyenoord

With Feyenoord currently causing chaos in the final third, we predict that Arne Slot's side will once again hit the back of the net and remain at the summit of the Eredivisie standings after the conclusion of round 21 of matches.

Vitesse vs. Utrecht (Sunday, 1.30pm)

Gameweek 21 of the 2022-23 Eredivisie season sees Vitesse and FC Utrecht go head to head against each other at GelreDome on Sunday afternoon.

The home side will be looking to extending their three-match unbeaten run, while the visitors go in search of a third consecutive win across all competitions.

We say: Vitesse 1-1 FC Utrecht

Utrecht are on a better run of results heading into this one, but their defensive woes away from home will surely give Vitesse a glimmer of hope. We expect an open and end to end affair with the sides settling for a point apiece in the end.

Ajax vs. RKC Waalwijk (Sunday, 3.45pm)

Reigning Eredivisie champions Ajax face RKC Waalwijk at the Johan Cruijff ArenA on Sunday afternoon.

De Godenzonen trail league leaders Feyenoord by three points, while Joseph Oosting's side remains closer to the relegation zone than the final European qualification position.

We say: Ajax 3-1 RKC Waalwijk

With Ajax beginning a new regime with Heitinga at the helm, with an already unblemished record from his first two matches in charge, we predict that the hosts will leave the Johan Cruijff ArenA with all three points on Sunday.

FC Twente vs. Volendam (Sunday, 3.45pm)

FC Twente are set to go head to head with FC Volendam in an Eredivisie clash on Sunday afternoon at De Grolsch Veste.

The home side will be looking to get back on track after a 1-0 defeat by Ajax in their most recent outing, while Volendam have been in good form recently, securing a 1-1 draw against AZ Alkmaar last weekend despite receiving a red card.

We say: FC Twente 2-0 FC Volendam

While Volendam have had a bright start to the new year, we believe that Twente will manage to overcome the away side in this affair.

Twente will dominate the possession and look to create goalscoring opportunities through consistent attacks while Volendam will set up compact and will seek to harm their opponents in transitions.

However, we think that Twente will pierce through Volendam's leaky defence and will finish 2-0 victors.
