Feyenoord will welcome Emmen to De Kuip on Saturday for a matchday 27 fixture in the Eredivisie.

The hosts settled for a share of the spoils in last week's marquee game against PSV. First-half goals from Steven Berghuis and Donyell Malen ensured both sides could not be separated in a 1-1 draw.

Emmen also played out a 1-1 draw away to FC Groningen. A second-half strike by Alessio Da Cruz canceled out Glenn Bijl's opener to rescue a point for the hosts.

The results did not have any impact on the table, as Feyenoord remained in fifth place and lost further ground in the race for European qualification.

Emmen still occupy bottom place on the standings and are now eight points away from safety.

Feyenoord vs Emmen Head-to-Head

This will be the seventh meeting between the sides in the last decade and Feyenoord have the better record.

De Stadionclub have six wins and one draw to their name, scoring 21 goals and conceding seven. Emmen are yet to register a victory against the Rotterdam outfit.

Their most recent meeting came on 1 November 2020. A rampant first half saw a red card shown to the hosts and four goals shared between the sides in a 2-2 draw.

Naoufal Bannis scored a 90th-minute winner to help Feyenoord complete their comeback from two goals down to win 3-2 away from home.

Feyenoord's recent form has left a lot to be desired and they have just one win from their last five league fixtures.

Emmen are unbeaten in four matches, with two consecutive draws following two successive victories. Incredibly, their 3-2 victory over PEC Zwolle on matchday 23 was their first of the season.

FC Emmen have been in fine form over the last few weeks but their unbeaten run could well come to an end against Feyenoord.
