Saturday's Eredivisie predictions including Ajax vs. Sparta Rotterdam

Utrecht vs. Sittard (Saturday, 5.45pm)

Looking to avoid a third defeat in a row, relegation-threatened Fortuna Sittard visit the Stadion Galgenwaard on Saturday to lock horns against FC Utrecht.

The home side come into this weekend's clash seeking to get back to winning ways having ended a two-game losing streak last time out.

We say: FC Utrecht 2-1 Fortuna Sittard

Both teams are on a poor run of form heading into this one and the game could end up swinging either way. However, we fancy Utrecht to narrowly edge out their visitors and secure all three points at the sound of the final whistle.

Ajax go in search of a fifth consecutive Eredivisie win on Saturday when they play host to Sparta Rotterdam at the Johan Cruyff ArenA.

The home side are also looking to complete a league double over their visitors off the back of a narrow 1-0 win in the reverse fixture.

We say: Ajax 3-0 Sparta Rotterdam

Ajax have dominated this fixture to a large degree, and we expect more of the same on Saturday. We fancy the hosts to secure a comfortable victory and continue their march towards a 36th league crown.

NEC and FC Twente go head-to-head at Stadion de Goffert on Saturday in round 29 of the 2021-22 Eredivisie season.

Revenge will be on the agenda for the away side this weekend following a 2-1 defeat in October's reverse fixture.

We say: NEC 1-2 FC Twente

Twente head into this one on a better run of form and that momentum could come in handy. We expect a keenly-contested affair and a narrow victory for the away side come the end of the 90 minutes.
