- Groningen have not won any of their last 3 Eredivisie away matches at Feyenoord
- Feyenoord have won 2 and drawn 1 of the last 3 head-to-head meetings, winning 1-0 away 6 months ago
- FC Groningen have won 3 and have drawn 2 of their last 5 matches, beating AZ Alkmaar 3-0 in their most recent game
Feyenoord should find a way to beat disciplined Groningen
Our Feyenoord Rotterdam vs FC Groningen prediction is that Feyenoord should claim all the points in the 2025-2026 Eredivisie on Saturday when Groningen come to De Kuip. Robin van Persie’s side have been in very solid form over the last five matches with four draws in that sequence, but they look set to break the deadlock against a decent Groningen side.
Feyenoord’s last three games have ended in draws against Ajax, FC Volendam and NEC Nijmegen respectively. The form book suggests that they are much better than that, sitting in second place in the Eredivisie with 55 points from 30 games. Van Persie has made them a high-tempo, possession-based side with an attacking mentality, using high pressing and verticality to dominate territory.
Ayase Ueda is their lethal finisher, top of the scoring charts with 22 Eredivisie goals in 28 appearances and five of their last seven have come from his boot. Igor Paixão and Calvin Stengs provide great creativity in the midfield and attacking third while also being able to push up when the opportunity arises.
Groningen have been solid in their own style
This Feyenoord Rotterdam vs FC Groningen preview highlights that Groningen are a good side, but have had a slightly less spectacular campaign to date, sitting in ninth place with 42 points from 30 matches. Their compact 4-4-2 system relies on discipline and organisation at the back, with Laros Duarte and Luciano Valente providing a good blend of stability and transition play.
Dick Lukkien’s team have looked very solid in recent weeks, going unbeaten in five with three wins and two draws coming in that time. They are coming off a huge 3-0 win over AZ Alkmaar, and our Feyenoord Rotterdam vs FC Groningen prediction is that they should make it tough for Feyenoord on Saturday.
Groningen have a solid away record in the Eredivisie with 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses this season, but they have conceded an average of 1.53 goals per match away from home, which comes to 23 goals in total. This should be an entertaining game between two good teams, and Feyenoord are the favorites at 1.65 to win the game.
Expect an attacking game at De Kuip
When analyzing Feyenoord Rotterdam vs FC Groningen betting tips, I will take the home team to claim all the points in this match, but the odds on both teams to score (1.52) and over 2.5 goals (1.44) look good given that both teams have been involved in open, attacking games recently. Thom van Bergen is leading the line for Groningen with 8 goals in 30 Eredivisie games, having scored three of their last nine goals.
There is enough quality in both sides to make it an exciting game at De Kuip on Saturday, but the Feyenoord Rotterdam vs FC Groningen prediction remains a home win, as Feyenoord have just enough extra to claim the win against a team that have failed to win in their last three away visits to Feyenoord.
