De Kuip will host Sunday’s Rotterdam derby as Feyenoord look to maintain their grip on second place. Given the huge gap in quality between the two local rivals, we predict a 2-1 home win. Robin van Persie's men come off an entertaining 3-3 draw with Breda, though midfielder Luciano Valente is doubtful after picking up a knock. At home, Feyenoord have been dominant, winning four of their last five at De Kuip and averaging 2.60 goals per match. Defensively, they remain reliable too, with a 40% clean-sheet rate in home fixtures.
Excelsior travel across Rotterdam after a 2-1 defeat to Heerenveen, with forward Miliano Jonathans unlikely to take part. Their form has been concerning—four defeats in their last five—and they have struggled badly away from home, collecting just one win on the road and scoring only 1.00 goal per away game. While BTTS shows up in 60% of their away fixtures, Excelsior’s defensive leaks (1.60 conceded per away match) make this a difficult assignment.
Historically, the derby is one-sided: Feyenoord have won 16 of the last 18 meetings, with 83% of H2Hs producing over 2.5 goals (83% H2H). As Feyenoord have been producing fine performances at home of late, we predict Home Win, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Over 3.5 yellow cards.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 15 March 2026 at 14:30.
