Groningen vs Feyenoord Prediction & Betting Tips (28 September)

Groningen welcome Feyenoord to the Euroborg Stadium this Sunday in what promises to be a compelling clash in the seventh round of the Eredivisie. The hosts, under the guidance of coach Dick Lukkien, have found a rhythm lately, stringing together three consecutive wins and keeping clean sheets in each. Their most recent triumph, a 2-0 victory over SC Telstar, showcased the attacking prowess of Younes Taha and Oskar Zawada, both of whom found the net. Groningen currently sit third in the table with 12 points, and their average of 1.7 goals per game suggests they’re not shy in front of goal.

Feyenoord, led by Robin van Persie, arrive in Groningen riding a wave of momentum. The Rotterdam side have won four straight matches, including a confident 2-0 win over Fortuna Sittard, with Ayase Ueda and Aymen Sliti on the scoresheet. Sitting atop the Eredivisie standings with 15 points, Feyenoord boast an impressive average of 2.1 goals per game and have conceded just seven times in their last seven outings. Van Persie’s tactical setup has allowed his side to dominate possession and strike with precision, making them a formidable opponent even away from home.

Historically, Feyenoord have had the upper hand in this fixture, winning the last meeting 4-1 and maintaining a strong record against Groningen. However, the current form of the home side suggests a more balanced contest this time around. Groningen’s defensive discipline and recent scoring consistency could pose problems for Feyenoord’s backline, especially if Zawada and Taha continue their fine form. With both teams averaging over 1.5 goals per match and showing signs of attacking intent, a high-scoring affair seems likely.

Despite Feyenoord’s statistical edge and league position, Groningen’s resurgence and home advantage tilt the scales toward a tighter outcome. Expect the Pride of the North to strike first, leveraging their recent momentum, but Feyenoord’s quality should ensure they respond. In a match brimming with tactical nuance and individual flair, a 2-1 victory for Groningen feels within reach—an upset on paper, but one grounded in current form and strategic execution.
