Feyenoord v ADO Den Haag preview

Following ADO Den Haag’s promotion to the Eredivisie, the team from The Hague are hoping to secure their place in the division as soon as possible. They really need to get started on this now, as they’ve yet to pick up their first point. Facing Feyenoord at De Kuip looks set to be a very tough task. Here’s a brief look at both teams.

Current Form & Team News

Feyenoord

Anyone who’d predicted beforehand that Gjivai Zechiël would currently be the man of the moment at Feyenoord would have been considered a bit of a madcap. The young midfielder performed well for FC Utrecht last season, but was nonetheless set to leave the Stadionclub. Three Eredivisie matches in, and he is the club’s top scorer and by far the most outstanding player in Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s squad. Yet a move away still looms large, especially now that teams such as OSC Lille are coming in with millions on the table. Will he play another key role against ADO Den Haag?

ADO Den Haag

It’s set to be absolutely heaving on the A4 around lunchtime on Sunday, as ADO Den Haag and their supporters make their way to Rotterdam-Zuid. They’re doing so in the knowledge that, after three defeats in a row, they desperately need a good result. So far, they have lost their matches against AZ Alkmaar, FC Groningen and Go Ahead Eagles by 0–2, 1–4 and 1–3 respectively.

In short, there is work to be done for Robin Peter, the German manager of the club from The Hague. The only consolation is the fact that Feyenoord failed to win either of their last two matches against ADO, played in 2021. Is another upset on the cards?

Head-to-Head

It is clear that Feyenoord generally have the upper hand when the two teams meet. Since ADO Den Haag last played at the top flight in the 2020–2021 season, the two teams have faced each other only rarely. What is clear, however, is that Feyenoord have won all of their last eight home matches against ADO Den Haag. This goes to show once again that Feyenoord are highly likely to pick up three vital points.

Predicted line-ups

Feyenoord (4-3-3):

Ernst, Marmol, St. Juste, Watanabe, Read, Valente, Vanhoutte, Zechiël, Diarra, Ueda, Hadj Moussa

ADO Den Haag (4-4-2):

Nikiema, Sylla, Hokke, Mulder, Raterink, Thomas, Kilo, Zamburek, van Mieghem, Eduardo, Rottier

Feyenoord v ADO Den Haag betting tips

Betting tip 1: Both teams to score

We can’t imagine anything other than a Feyenoord victory. However, we do think ADO Den Haag will score at least one goal. After all, Feyenoord have conceded four goals in their last two matches, whilst the ‘both teams to score – YES’ bet has paid out in six of the last seven meetings between the two sides. This also applies to the last two matches both teams played in the current Eredivisie. Both teams to score – YES gives you odds of 1.82.

Betting tip 2: Gjivai Zechiël will score or provide an assist

Can we really ignore Gjivai Zechiël? We don’t think so, especially as the young midfielder has been responsible for a goal or an assist in each of the three Eredivisie matches he has played. He has now scored three goals and provided one assist, which shows that ADO Den Haag will have their work cut out to stop him. We certainly expect Feyenoord to score several more goals, with the 22-year-old from Rotterdam once again proving decisive. If Gjivai Zechiël scores or provides an assist, you’ll get odds of 2.00.

Prediction: Feyenoord v ADO Den Haag

Final score: Feyenoord 3–1 ADO Den Haag
We reckon Feyenoord will win their second home match of the season. We see a vulnerable ADO defence up against a side that finds the net with ease. As far as we’re concerned, this will result in a 3–1 victory for Feyenoord. What do you think?
