The Eredivisie returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Feyenoord play host to Fortuna Sittard at the De Kuip Stadium on Sunday.

The hosts are currently second on the log after a fine start to the season, while the visitors find themselves second from the bottom — just above rock-bottom PEC Zwolle.

Feyenoord returned to winning ways last Wednesday as they came from behind to see off Heracles 2-1 on home turf.

Prior to that, they saw their six-game winning streak come to an end courtesy of a thrilling 2-3 draw with Slavia Prague in the Conference League before playing a goalless draw with Twente three days later.

With 32 points from 14 outings, Feyenoord are currently second on the log, four points behind league leaders Ajax.

Meanwhile, Fortuna Sittard failed to snap their dire losing streak as they were beaten 2-1 by AZ Alkmaar away from home.

Sjors Ultee’s men have now lost each of their last five games, dating back to a 3-0 cup win over Top Oss back in October.

Fortuna Sittard are currently 17th in the Eredivisie table, four points adrift of last-placed PEC Zwolle.
