Prediction: 3-1
Vitesse
Following a 2-0 win over Zwolle before the international window, Feyenoord will be looking to extend their winning run to seven games when they host Vitesse to their De Kuip on Matchday 9. The Rotterdammers look unstoppable at the moment and we are positive that they will stick to their attacking style of play. Both Gernot Trauner and Luka Ivanusec are sidelined with injuries, while Timo Zaal is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The Vitas, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late. In their last meeting in Rotterdam Vitesse shocked Feyenoord thanks to Marco van Ginkel’s goal, meaning that the reigning champions are hungry for revenge. As for the away team, both Fode Fofana and Mathijs Tielemans are sidelined with injuries, while Amine Boutrah faces race against the clock to be fit for the match.

Nicknamed Vitas, the proud of Gelderland, Vitesse are a Dutch football club based in Arnhem. Vitesse compete in the Dutch Eredivisie and they have yet to win the national championship. However, they finished as runners-up in the Dutch elite division on five occasions (1897–98, 1902–03, 1912–13, 1913–14, 1914–15), while clinching third place in the standings in the 1997/1998 season.
Vitesse did remarkably well to win the 2016/2017 Dutch Cup title, with the team beating AZ Alkmaar in the final at De Kuip in Rotterdam. As a result, the Vitas booked their place in the Europa League group stages where they face the likes of Lazio, Nice and Zulte-Waregem.
