Two teams with European aspirations face off against each other as FC Twente and Feyenoord clash at the Grolsch Veste Stadium on Sunday.

The sides come into this one on the back of respective victories last time out, and each of them will be looking to build on that.

We say: FC Twente 1-2 Feyenoord

Feyenoord will fancy themselves in this one to make it three wins from three, and we back them to come out triumphant in what should be a tightly-contested affair.

Heerenveen vs. Groningen (Sunday, 1.30pm)

Heerenveen host Groningen at the Abe Lenstra Stadion on Sunday as they look to bounce back from a 3-1 loss to AZ Alkmaar last Sunday.

On the flip side, their visitors are in search of consecutive league victories for the first time since the turn of the year.

We say: Heerenveen 1-2 Groningen

Heerenveen come into this one on the back of an exhausting midweek tie with only little time to recover. We expect Groningen to be fresher and fitter, while also claiming all three points.

Looking to pull further away from the relegation zone, RKC Waalwijk welcome Heracles to the Mandemakers Stadion on Sunday.

On the other hand, the away side will be aiming to avoid another defeat to their hosts after they lost 1-0 in October's reverse fixture.

We say: RKC Waalwijk 1-1 Heracles

The home side are unbeaten in three league games, while their visitors have lost only one of the last five. We expect a close game and a share of the spoils in this one.

PSV Eindhoven head into their fixture with Vitesse knowing that only victory will do if they realistically want to keep pace with Eredivisie leaders Ajax.

On the back of four matches without a win, Vitesse now sit five points adrift of their opponents ahead of Sunday's game at the Philips Stadion.

We say: PSV Eindhoven 4-1 Vitesse

After the defeat in midweek, Schmidt will be aware that he is coming under pressure to get things back on track. With Vitesse having been poor of late, we expect PSV to do just that on Sunday, potentially prevailing by a wide scoreline.

Ajax head into Sunday's Eredivisie fixture with Sparta Rotterdam looking to extend their winning streak in the division to seven matches.

Meanwhile, Sparta have dropped down to 12th position after putting together a run of five games without success.

We say: Ajax 3-1 Sparta Rotterdam

The short turnaround for Ajax will give Sparta hope that they can achieve an unlikely result on Sunday evening. Nevertheless, we expect a strong performance from the home side, who can only be on a high after the dramatic conclusion against Lille.
