Sunday's Eredivisie predictions including Ajax vs. Waalwijk

Utrecht vs. PSV (Sunday, 11.15am)

Looking to extend their flawless record in the league this term, runaway leaders PSV Eindhoven will face FC Utrecht at Stadion Galgenwaard on Sunday afternoon in the Eredivisie.

The Cathedral Citizens will be aiming to halt a worrying winless run, while the visitors will seek to make it three-straight wins since returning from the winter break.

We say: FC Utrecht 0-2 PSV Eindhoven

After drawing a blank against basement dwellers Vitesse last time out, Utrecht will not be too confident of earning anything from the visit of the league leaders.

PSV are brushing their Eredivisie counterparts aside at ease this term, and we see no reason why Sunday's trip to Stadion Galgenwaard will buck the trend.

Vitesse vs. Feyenoord (Sunday, 1.30pm)

Aiming to record a first victory of the calendar year, Dutch champions Feyenoord travel to face relegation-threatened Vitesse at GelreDome on Sunday afternoon in the Eredivisie.

The hosts are fighting for their lives at the foot of the table but had reason to cheer in the cup last time out, while the Pride of the South were forced to settle for a point on their return to action following the winter break.

We say: Vitesse 0-3 Feyenoord

Vitesse have struggled enormously at GelreDome this season, and the hosts will not be confident of earning a result against the champions on Sunday.

Feyenoord have good recent memories of trips to Arnhem and we cannot envisage that changing this weekend, so we are predicting a comfortable win for the visitors.

Sparta vs. Go Ahead Eagles (Sunday, 1.30pm)

Two sides separated by just two points in the top half of the Eredivisie table will do battle on Sunday, as Sparta Rotterdam entertain Go Ahead Eagles.

The hosts leapfrogged their visitors to move into sixth place with a victory on their return to action last weekend, while Go Ahead Eagles fell just short against Ajax.

We say: Sparta Rotterdam 2-1 Go Ahead Eagles

Sparta Rotterdam are yet to build on an Eredivisie victory with a second straight three-point haul this season, but with home advantage against a Go Ahead Eagles side who are devoid of momentum and quickly dropping down the table, we back them to end their wait and make it back-to-back triumphs this weekend.

Ajax vs. RKC Waalwijk (Sunday, 3.45pm)

Ajax will aim to stretch their league unbeaten run to 10 matches on Sunday, when they welcome RKC Waalwijk to the Dutch capital.

An eye-catching upturn in form has seen the hosts climb to fifth spot in the Eredivisie table after a dismal start to the term, while their visitors currently occupy the relegation playoff place in the midst of a winless run.

We say: Ajax 3-0 RKC Waalwijk

Ajax finally appear to have hit their stride this season, and with momentum growing they should have far too much for a struggling RKC Waalwijk side on home turf.
