Feyenoord are set to host Heracles on Sunday, with the hosts hoping to get back to winning ways, after failing to pick up victories in their previous three games in all competitions.
Heracles, meanwhile, will be eager to bounce back from their 2-1 loss against AZ Alkmaar last weekend, with Frank Wormuth's men suffering their sixth league defeat of the season.
Match preview
Feyenoord have endured some disappointing results in recent times, having picked up a 1-1 draw in their previous league result against FC Utrecht.
During the game, Lutsharel Geertruida was the only player to get on the scoresheet for the hosts, scoring the equaliser in the second half.
The Rotterdam outfit also suffered a 2-0 defeat against Dinamo Zagreb during their latest Europa League group match on Thursday evening, leaving their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages hanging in the balance.
However, it is worth noting that they are still unbeaten in the league, having picked up six wins and four draws in the Eredivisie so far.
Heracles, on the other hand, are struggling domestically, with the visitors currently just one place above the relegation playoffs in the table.
Their latest defeat against AZ featured a late goal by Lucas Schoofs, however they were unable to find that all-important equaliser.
In fact, their last win came over a month ago, when Heracles were able to claim an impressive 4-1 triumph over Utrecht in early November.
However, their away form has been poor this campaign, with the Almelo club failing to pick up a single win on the road in the 2020-21 season.
The two teams last met in January earlier this year, where Feyenoord were able to come back from 1-0 down to eventually win the game 3-2.
