G.A. Eagles take on the visitors Feyenoord in the round 31 match of Dutch Eredivisie. The match will be played on Thursday, April 25th at De Adelaarshorst (Deventer).
The Eagles are having a pretty good season and currently sit in eighth place in the table. I'll remind you that finishing in the top 9 at the end of the regular season gives them the right to compete for a spot in European competitions. The team's attack is doing well; in 30 rounds, the Go Ahead Eagles have scored 44 goals, averaging about 1.5 per match. Of these 44 goals, 30 were scored at home. In the last three rounds, Rene Hake's team has consistently played at home: draws with Ajax (1-1) and Almere City (1-1) plus a defeat to Utrecht (1-2). I think the Eagles are quite capable of upsetting Feyenoord's goalkeeper at least once on their home turf.

Yes, the Pride of the South clean sheets in three consecutive league matches. But before that, the team not only won but also conceded goals: against Utrecht (4-2) and Heerenveen (3-2). On average, Rotterdam concedes fewer than one goal per game this season. However, Feyenoord tends to concede more frequently away from home than at home. Plus, it's quite possible that Arne Slot's team may relax towards the end of the championship. They have a significant gap behind the leading PSV, as well as a points advantage over the teams vying for third place.
The guests are the favorites of the match, but Rotterdam won't be tearing their muscles for an away victory without any motivation. It would be a different story if they were playing at home and could please their home fans. However, Feyenoord's attack is so strong that they are unlikely to leave De Adelaarshorst Stadium without scoring. In 30 rounds, the Pride of the South has scored 77 goals. But the Eagles can give a tough fight to any opponent at home, at least in terms of attacking actions. In their last encounter at Go Ahead Eagles' home ground, the teams engaged in a real shootout, which ended with a 4-3 victory for the visitors. Feyenoord defeated the Eagles at home in the first round of the current season, but they also conceded (3-1). My prediction is Both Teams to Score.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
