Saturday's Eredivisie football predictions including PEC Zwolle vs. FC Twente

Sittard vs. Utrecht (Saturday, 3.30pm)

Having lost seven of their last eight matches, Fortuna Sittard play host to FC Utrecht in round 17 of the 2021-22 Eredivisie season on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the away side head into the game looking to avoid a fifth consecutive defeat away from home.

We say: Fortuna Sittard 1-2 FC Utrecht

The sides come into the game on a poor of run of results and three points here would do both teams a world of good. We fancy the visitors to come out on top by the skin of their teeth at the end of the 90 minutes.

In search of a fifth straight win across all competitions, Vitesse visit the Het Kasteel on Saturday to face off against Sparta Rotterdam.

On the other hand, the home side are looking to end a five-game winless run which has seen them fail to win in over a month.

We say: Sparta Rotterdam 1-2 Vitesse

Vitesse head into the contest in arguably their best form of the season and will back themselves to keep the juggernaut rolling. We are backing them to get the job done come the full-time whistle.

Looking to pick up their sixth consecutive victory across all competitions, AZ Alkmaar play host to Willem II at the AFAS Stadion on Saturday.

The visitors, in stark contrast, have lost each of their most recent seven games across all competitions and will be aiming to end this dry spell.

We say: AZ Alkmaar 2-0 Willem II

After a slow start to the season, AZ Alkmaar have hit their stride in recent weeks and will be aiming to keep the juggernaut rolling and move into the European qualification places. Given the gulf in class and quality between the two sides, we predict they will claim all three points against a floundering Willem II side.

Heracles vs. Groningen (Saturday, 7.00pm)

Aiming to avoid a sixth straight defeat, Heracles welcome high-flying Groningen to the Erve Asito on Saturday.

The away side, on the other hand, head into the clash unbeaten in their last six outings where they have picked up three wins and three draws apiece.

We say: Heracles 1-2 Groningen

Groningen have been hard to beat of late having lost just one of their last 11 games in stark contrast to Heracles who have lost eight times in that span. We fancy the away team to emerge victorious, narrowly edging out their hosts by the odd goal.

FC Twente visit the Mac3Park Stadion on Saturday to face off against PEC Zwolle looking to pick up a third league triumph on the bounce.

Meanwhile, the home side head into the game having recently ended a six-game winless streak last time out.

We say: PEC Zwolle 0-2 FC Twente

Buoyed by their cup victory in midweek, Zwolle will head into Saturday's contest full of belief. Nonetheless, we are tipping Twente to come away with all three points at the sound of the full-time whistle.
