Eredivisie Outrights Tips for 2025/2026 Season

Outright betting in the Eredivisie focuses on long-term outcomes across the Netherlands’ top-flight football league. The most popular outright markets for the Eredivisie include To Win the Title, Top Scorer, and Relegation.

Eredivisie Outrights Tips for 2025_2026 Season

Who is most likely to win the Eredivisie this season?

Priced at 8/15 (around 65%), PSV Eindhoven are the clear favourites to win the 2025/26 Eredivisie and secure a third consecutive league title under Peter Bosz. PSV finished the previous campaign with 79 points and an impressive 103 goals, sealing the trophy with a decisive 3–1 victory over Sparta Rotterdam on the final day.

Bosz’s dynamic, attacking approach remains central to their success, and this summer’s transfers have reinforced their strength rather than disrupted it. Ruben van Bommel’s arrival at PSV from AZ adds youthful pace and flair, while Alassane Pléa and Dennis Man bring top-level experience and versatility across the front line. With tactical continuity, attacking depth, and one of Europe’s most consistent managers at the helm, PSV look well-positioned to dominate the Eredivisie once again this season.

Which teams are most likely to be relegated from the Eredivisie this season?

The two clubs most likely to face relegation from the 2025/26 Eredivisie are FC Volendam, priced at 8/11 (58%), and Excelsior, priced at 2/1 (33%). Both sides enter the new campaign with evident weaknesses. Volendam’s lack of top-flight experience and poor away form make them one of the leading relegation candidates. At the same time, Excelsior’s defensive instability places them among the main favourites to drop to the Eerste Divisie.

More information about the 2 main Eredivisie relegation candidates is given below.

  • FC Volendam (8/11, 58%). Volendam are the bookmakers’ strongest relegation favourites for the Eredivisie. The team ended last season with one of the league’s lowest xG tallies and the fewest away points, revealing a lack of experience and physicality against higher-level opposition. Volendam’s young attack struggles to convert chances, and defensive lapses late in games remain costly. Unless their form improves significantly on the road, they are likely to relegate from the Eredivisie to the Eerste Divisie.
  • Excelsior (2/1, 33%). Excelsior are second-favourites for relegation from the Eredivisie after narrowly surviving through the play-offs last season. Their defence, which conceded over 70 goals in 2024/25, continues to be their weakest point. New signings have added energy but little proven quality or leadership at the back, and without a major improvement in organisation, Excelsior look set for another season battling in the Eredivisie bottom three.

Which player is most likely to finish top scorer in the Eredivisie this season?

Priced at 11/8 (58%) by major bookmakers, Ayase Ueda is our favourite player to finish as the Eredivisie’s top scorer thanks to his role as Feyenoord’s main attacking option and his proven goal-scoring record at Cercle Brugge. During the 2022–23 campaign, Ueda netted 22 goals for the Belgian side, showing the finishing instinct and consistency that later convinced Feyenoord to sign him. With his pace, positioning, and clinical finishing, supported by Feyenoord’s attacking system, Ueda looks well placed to claim the Eredivisie Top Scorer prize this year.

What are Eredivisie Predictions?

Eredivisie predictions are expert evaluations of the most likely outcomes in the Dutch top flight, covering both long-term markets like title winners and relegation candidates, as well as match-specific bets such as Over/Under goals. By combining statistical modelling with up-to-date analysis of team form, player performance, and tactical setups, our Eredivisie forecasts offer a precise and consistent guide for bettors looking to make informed decisions across every round of the competition.

How are Eredivisie Predictions determined?

Our Eredivisie predictions are built through a structured process that merges statistical modelling, team evaluation, and market insight. Our approach for shaping betting tips reflects the nature of the Dutch league, where attacking football, youth development, and competitive balance between top and mid-table clubs often shape outcomes.

The 3 main stages behind our Eredivisie predictions are as follows.

  • Assessing team form and attacking trends
  • Evaluating squad depth and tactical stability
  • Aligning data models with betting markets
  1. Assessing team form and attacking trends. The first stage in developing accurate Eredivisie predictions involves studying club performance across key metrics such as goals scored, defensive records, and xG (expected goals) data. Given the Eredivisie league’s open and attacking style, these indicators help identify consistent scorers and vulnerable defences, especially when comparing home and away form.
  2. Evaluating squad depth and tactical stability. Once team data is reviewed, the next stage in shaping reliable Eredivisie forecasts focuses on how clubs handle rotation, injuries, and tactical adjustments over the season. Eredivisie managers often promote young players and alter formations to maintain intensity, so understanding these changes is essential to forecasting mid-season form swings and long-term success.
  3. Aligning data models with betting markets. The final stage in producing solid Eridivise predictions compares statistical findings with bookmaker odds to uncover potential value bets. The Eredivisie’s unpredictability (driven by player development and frequent transfers) often leads to market inefficiencies. Tracking odds movement against team data allows our analysts to highlight the most promising opportunities for informed betting decisions across the Netherlands’ premier football competition.

When are Eredivisie Predictions released?

Our Eredivisie predictions are released every Tuesday at 12:00 AM London time, ahead of the weekend fixtures. This schedule allows bettors and fans to review detailed match analysis, team form, and injury updates well before the next round of games begins. Midweek Eredivisie matches or rearranged fixtures are covered separately, with predictions published as soon as the confirmed line-ups and schedules are available.

What are the most appealing Betting Markets to bet on for the Eredivisie?

The three most appealing betting markets in the Eredivisie are Both Teams to Score (BTTS), Over 2.5 Goals, and Clean Sheets. These markets reflect long-term patterns observed across the last five seasons, since matches in the Eredivisie average over three goals per game, with BTTS landing in more than half of fixtures and clean sheets trending slightly below 55%.

What are the most appealing Betting Markets to bet on for the eredivisie

More information on the 3 best betting markets for the Netherlands Eredivisie follows below.

  • Both Teams to Score (BTTS). BTTS remains one of the most reliable Eredivisie betting markets. BTTS has landed between 53% and 56% of the time across the last five Eredivisie seasons, with most teams favouring high pressing and fluid transitions. Even mid-table and lower-ranked sides contribute to this trend by often scoring at home but conceding heavily away, creating consistent value for this market.
  • Over 2.5 Goals. Over 2.5 Goals is a profitable market in Eredivisie betting, driven by the league’s high scoring rate. Between the 2020/21 and 2024/25 seasons, the average goals per match ranged from 2.88 to 3.24, with Over 2.5 outcomes occurring in around 55% to 60% of fixtures. The league’s attacking style, focus on youth development, and willingness to take risks in possession make the Eredivisie one of Europe’s most entertaining divisions for goal-based betting.
  • Clean Sheets. Clean Sheets provide one of the best markets for Eredivisie bettors. Despite the league’s attacking reputation, around half of Eredivisie matches still feature at least one team keeping a clean sheet. Across the last five Eredivisie seasons, clean sheet frequency has ranged between 48% and 55%, showing that well-organised sides like PSV, Feyenoord, and AZ Alkmaar consistently deliver defensive returns, especially in home fixtures.

The table below summarises Eredivisie outcomes from the past five seasons across these key markets.

Season Both Teams to Score Over 2.5 Goals Clean Sheets Avg. Goals / Match
2020/21 56% 56% 50% 2.99
2021/22 55% 56% 50% 2.88
2022/23 53% 59% 55% 3.04
2023/24 56% 59% 48% 3.24
2024/25 56% 56% 48% 3.01

Eredivisie Season Guide

The 2025/26 Eredivisie season marks the 70th edition of the Netherlands’ premier football competition. The league features 18 teams representing all major Dutch provinces and remains the highest level of football in the country.

The Eredivisie campaign traditionally begins with the Netherlands Super Cup, an annual clash between the Eredivisie champion and the winner of the KNVB Cup, which offers an early opportunity to analyse form, momentum, and standout players ahead of the new season. PSV Eindhoven enter the Eredivisie season as defending champions after lifting the title in 2024/25.

What Is the Format of the Eredivisie 2025/26 Season?

The Eredivisie 2025/26 season follows a traditional double round-robin format which has been used in previous years as well. Each of the 18 Eredivisie teams plays the others twice, once at home and once away, for a total of 34 matches per team. The team that finishes first is crowned Eredivisie champion and qualifies directly for the UEFA Champions League group phase, while the second-placed team enters the Champions League qualifiers. Teams finishing third and fourth in the Eredivisie automatically secure Europa League and Conference League qualification spots respectively, while the bottom two clubs are relegated directly to the Eerste Divisie. The side that places 16th enters a promotion/relegation play-off against a second-tier opponent to determine their place in the Eredivisie next season.

What are the Start & End Dates for the Eredivisie 2025/26?

The 2025/26 Eredivisie season began on 8 August 2025 and will conclude on 17 May 2026.
The season runs for 34 rounds spread across nine months, with a winter break from 23rd December 2025 to 10 January 2026. Eredivisie domestic fixtures are arranged around European competitions and international breaks, ensuring consistent scheduling for all participating clubs. PSV Eindhoven opened the Eredivisie season as title holders, while newcomers Telstar made their first Eredivisie appearance in 47 years, marking one of the league’s most anticipated returns.

How are Eredivisie Fixtures built up?

Eredivisie fixtures are built up by the Royal Dutch Football Association to ensure competitive balance and logistical efficiency. The Eredivisie fixture list is designed to alternate home and away matches as evenly as possible, while local derbies such as Feyenoord vs Sparta Rotterdam and Ajax vs AZ are scheduled strategically to ease policing and travel demands. The Eredivisie calendar integrates European commitments for clubs like PSV, Feyenoord, and Ajax, while newly promoted sides are usually given early-season home matches to build momentum.

The competition concludes with simultaneous final-round fixtures in May to maintain fairness during title and relegation battles.
