Feyenoord will host Heracles Almelo at De Kuip on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Eredivisie campaign.
The home side have performed well this season and are targeting a return to the UEFA Champions League next season. They played out a 2-2 draw against league leaders PSV Eindhoven in their last match, with Yankuba Minteh and team top scorer Santiago Gimenez getting on the scoresheet in either half to ensure De Stadionclub left the Philips Stadion with a point.
Feyenoord remain second in the Eredivisie with 56 points from 24 matches and will be looking to close the gap on runaway leaders PSV with maximum points on Sunday.
Heracles Almelo have had their struggles in the league of late but remain hopeful of avoiding the drop. They played out a 2-2 draw against Almere City last time out, finding themselves two goals down at the break before Jizz Hornkamp and Adjin Hrustic got on the scoresheet in the second-half to help secure a draw on turf.
The visitors sit 14th in the table with 23 points picked up so far and will be hopeful of adding to that tally here.
