Feyenoord vs Excelsior Predictions

• Feyenoord have won each of their last three games without reply.
• Over half of Feyenoord’s league wins this season also saw them lead at half-time.
• Excelsior trailed at half-time and full-time in five of their eight Eredivisie defeats this season.

Feyenoord can dominate their city rivals

A Rotterdam derby awaits Feyenoord and Excelsior in their final league game before the World Cup winter break.

Feyenoord will enter the encounter in much higher spirits as they have a chance to end 2022 at the top of the tree, but perhaps only with a huge margin of victory depending on PSV’s result on Saturday.

It is simply impossible to make a strong case against a positive Feyenoord result in this one, the hosts are unbeaten in all of their home games this season whilst keeping clean sheets in seven of those nine matches, so they’ll expect another strong performance here against their neighbours.

Stick with Arne Slot’s men to win well

With just one win from seven away league games this season, Excelsior’s form is just about the polar opposite to that of Feyenoord at home.

Combine that with the fact that five of their eight league defeats this season also saw them trail at the break, this could be a long afternoon for the visitors.

There is simply no value in backing Feyenoord to win at 1/8, so we’re going for a more palatable 1/2 about the half-time/full-time Feyenoord win.

To round out the selections, a comfortable 3-0 win in the correct score market seems likely given Feyenoord’s defensive solidity and their dominance in this particular fixture.
