Feyenoord will welcome Willem II to De Kuip for a matchday 28 fixture in the Eredivisie on Saturday.
The hosts will be looking to return to winning ways following their 3-2 defeat away to Ajax in De Klassieker before the international break. The Rotterdam outfit twice took the lead in the first half but were pegged back by second-half strikes from Dusan Tadic and Antony.
Willem II shared the spoils in a thrilling 2-2 draw with AZ Alkmaar on home turf. They raced into an early two-goal lead but Zakaria Aboukhlal stepped off the bench to equalize for Alkmaar in injury time.
The defeat dealt a blow to Willem II's hopes of avoiding relegation. They currently sit in 15th spot and are just one point above the drop zone. Feyenoord's defeat all but ended their slim hopes of a title race.
They sit in third spot on 55 points and are just one point above Twente in the race for Europa League qualification.
