Twente Vs Feyenoord
Twente Vs Feyenoord Livestream

Feyenoord, still reeling from their recent elimination from the Champions League, will seek redemption when they return to domestic action in the Eredivisie this weekend. The Rotterdam-based club faces a daunting challenge as they travel to De Grolsch Veste to lock horns with an in-form FC Twente side on Sunday. While Feyenoord aims to restore morale with a crucial league victory, their opponents have been in red-hot form on home turf and will be determined to extend their impressive winning streak.
The hosts, led by Joseph Oosting, have built a formidable reputation at home and are eyeing their ninth consecutive home win across all competitions since the beginning of December. Their latest outing in the Eredivisie saw them secure a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Almere City, further solidifying their credentials as serious contenders for a Champions League qualification spot.
Twente’s triumph over Almere was powered by an early goal from Sem Steijn, whose prolific goal-scoring form has been a defining feature of their campaign. Steijn’s 19th-minute strike marked his 20th goal of the season, reinforcing his status as one of the league’s most dangerous forwards. Twente then displayed resilience in defense, successfully fending off Almere’s attacking advances to claim all three points and delight their home supporters.
This result extended Twente’s unbeaten run to three matches, comprising two wins and a draw, and further highlighted their impressive consistency. Across their last ten outings in all competitions, they have suffered just one defeat—a heavy 5-2 loss at the hands of Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League on February 20. Aside from that blemish, they have been nearly flawless, showcasing both offensive firepower and defensive solidity.
Oosting’s squad has transformed De Grolsch Veste into a fortress this season, emerging victorious in their last eight home games across all competitions. Their dominance on home soil is further reflected in their Eredivisie record, as they are one of only three teams yet to suffer a home defeat this season. With nine wins and three draws at their own stadium, they have accumulated 30 points from a possible 36, making them one of the league’s strongest home performers.
Twente currently sits in fourth place in the Eredivisie standings, having amassed 46 points from 25 matches. This tally positions them just two points ahead of Feyenoord, who occupy fifth place, and three points behind Utrecht, who currently hold the coveted third spot in the race for Champions League qualification. With such fine margins separating these sides, Sunday’s clash carries significant implications for the battle for European places.
Meanwhile, Feyenoord arrives at this fixture with the burden of disappointment weighing heavily upon them following their Champions League exit. Their European campaign came to an end earlier this week when they fell to a 2-1 defeat against Italian champions Inter Milan in the second leg of their round-of-16 tie at the iconic San Siro.
The Dutch club’s hopes of progressing in the competition had already been dented by a 2-0 defeat in the first leg in Rotterdam. Heading into the return fixture, they needed a near-perfect performance to overturn the deficit, but despite a spirited effort, they fell short. Marcus Thuram opened the scoring for Inter, while Hakan Calhanoglu added another goal, ensuring that Jakub Moder’s 42nd-minute strike for Feyenoord was merely a consolation. Ultimately, the 4-1 aggregate defeat sealed their fate and ended their European journey.
With their Champions League dreams dashed, Feyenoord must now shift their full attention to their domestic campaign. Their last Eredivisie outing saw them held to a goalless draw by NEC Nijmegen, a result that extended their unbeaten league run to four matches. During this stretch, they have recorded two wins and two draws, a notable improvement from their prior struggles, which saw them collect just one point from a possible 12 in their preceding four fixtures.
Despite this recent upturn in form, challenges remain for Robin van Persie’s men as they prepare to visit a venue that has historically been unkind to them. Feyenoord has failed to win any of their last five visits to De Grolsch Veste, suffering two defeats and managing only three draws. Their last triumph at Twente’s ground dates back to April 2018, when they secured a 3-1 victory. Since then, they have struggled to impose themselves in Enschede, a worrying trend they will need to reverse if they are to keep pace in the race for European qualification.
Adding to their concerns is their patchy away record this season. Feyenoord has won just one of their last seven matches away from home, a worrying statistic that underlines their struggles on the road. Within this sequence, they have endured four defeats and two draws, with their only victory coming via a penalty shootout against AC Milan in the Europa League on February 18. This inability to secure consistent results away from Rotterdam raises questions about their ability to navigate the upcoming challenge against Twente.
Despite these obstacles, Feyenoord possesses the quality to pose a threat to any opponent, and their attacking talent remains a crucial asset. With key players capable of turning matches in an instant, they will be hoping to produce a performance that reignites their campaign. Van Persie’s tactical acumen will be tested, as he looks to devise a strategy that can counter Twente’s home dominance while maximizing Feyenoord’s own strengths.
This clash between two sides vying for European places promises to be an intense and fiercely contested encounter. Twente will be banking on their exceptional home form and the goal-scoring prowess of Sem Steijn to continue their momentum, while Feyenoord will be desperate to shake off the disappointment of their Champions League exit and prove their mettle in a crucial domestic battle.
The stakes are high, with both teams aware that any slip-up could have significant consequences in their pursuit of European football. For Twente, a victory would not only extend their formidable home run but also reinforce their position in the top four, keeping them in strong contention for Champions League qualification. On the other hand, Feyenoord knows that anything less than three points could see them lose further ground in the standings, making this match a pivotal moment in their season.
As the countdown to kick-off begins, anticipation is building for what promises to be a compelling encounter. Both teams have plenty to fight for, and with their respective ambitions on the line, this showdown at De Grolsch Veste could be a defining chapter in the Eredivisie season. Feyenoord, wounded but determined, will seek redemption, while Twente, buoyed by confidence and home advantage, will look to further cement their status as one of the league’s most formidable sides. The stage is set for an enthralling contest that could have lasting ramifications on the race for European qualification.
