Feyenoord and Utrecht will battle for three points in an Eredivisie matchday eight clash on Sunday (October 5th). The game will be played at De Kuip.
The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa at the same venue in the Europa League in midweek. Emiliano Buendia put the visitors ahead just past the hour-mark while John McGinn doubled their lead in the 79th minute.
Utrecht, meanwhile, fell to a 1-0 defeat away to Brann also in the Europa League. Saevar Magnusson's 41st-minute strike settled the contest.
Utrecht will turn their focus back to the domestic scene where their last game saw them share the spoils in a 2-2 draw at home to Heerenveen. Feyenoord claimed a 1-0 away win over Groningen.

Feyenoord vs Utrecht Prediction
Feyenoord's Europa League loss to Aston Villa was not without controversy, with manager Robin Van Persie revealing that referee Rade Obrenovic apologized to him for his decisions. Nevertheless, the 42-year-old is under pressure, having overseen just one win in the last four games.
Utrecht are in even more dire straits and are winless in their last five games across competitions, losing four games in this run. The fact that they failed to score in all four defeats would be of particular concern for manager Ron Jans.
Back the home side to claim a routine victory in addition to a clean sheet.
