Match Time & Date:

06:15 AM
Prediction: 2-3
Feyenoord
Feyenoord will look to cement top position in the standings when they face Fortuna Sittard on Matchday 23. The league leaders are eyeing their third consecutive victory, and their performance in a 2-1 win over AZ Alkmaar is certainly giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Sunday’s showdown. Turkish midfielder Orkun Kokcu is back from suspension, while all Patrik Walemark, Justin Bijlow, and Sebastian Szymanski remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Meanwhile, the hosts experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to RKC, and given Feyenoord’s fine form, we do not believe that Julio Velazquez’s troops are capable of grabbing something from the match. To make things even worse for the home side, their boss will be watching the game from the stands. You should bear in mind that the Rotterdammers are eyeing their eighth away win of the process.
