Separated by nine places and as many points on the log, Feyenoord and RKC Waalwijk get round nine of the 2021-22 Eredivisie season underway with their meeting at De Kuip on Saturday.
The hosts are looking to bounce back from a defeat in their last outing, while the visitors still await a first victory since the opening weekend.
We say: Feyenoord 3-0 RKC Waalwijk
Feyenoord are the only team in the division with a perfect home record to date and are strong favourites to come out on top in this one. We are backing them to cruise to all three points in grand style come the end of the 90 minutes.

Looking to give an immediate response to a first defeat of the season last time out, Ajax visit the Abe Lenstra Stadion on Saturday to lock horns with Heerenveen.
On the other hand, the home side go in search of consecutive victories for the first time since August having returned to winning ways in their last involvement.
We say: Heerenveen 0-3 Ajax
Ajax will definitely have one eye on their game against Borussia Dortmund and may opt to rest a couple of key stars this weekend. Nonetheless, we fancy them to come away with all three points in a comfortable fashion at the end of the 90 minutes.

Go Ahead Eagles vs. Heracles (Saturday, 5.45pm)
Looking to pick up a third consecutive league victory, Heracles visit De Adelaarshorst on Saturday to face off against Go Ahead Eagles.
Meanwhile, the home side are seeking to end a three-game winless run which has seen them slip into the bottom half of the standings off the back of a fine start to the season.
We say: Go Ahead Eagles 1-2 Heracles
Heracles seem to have turned a corner in recent weeks following a rough start to the campaign and will fancy themselves to come away with all three points in this one. We are tipping them to edge out their hosts, albeit by a narrow margin, at the sound of the full-time whistle.

Sittard vs. Cambuur (Saturday, 8.00pm)
Fortuna Sittard's bid to stay in the Eredivisie will continue when they welcome high-flying Cambuur to the Offermans Joosten Stadion on Saturday evening.
Cambuur are within touching distance of those chasing European football, despite only earning promotion to the top flight last season, whilst Fortuna's four-season stint in the Eredivisie looks like it could come to an end.
We say: Fortuna Sittard 0-2 Cambuur
In their first season back in the Eredivisie, Cambuur will be hoping their promising start can turn into a positive campaign and Fortuna represent the perfect post-international break return fixture.
They may have stuttered in past fixtures against the side from Sittard, yet now seems the perfect time for Cambuur to improve their fortunes against Fortuna.

Still awaiting their first victory of the 2021-22 Eredivisie campaign, PEC Zwolle square up against PSV Eindhoven at the Philips Stadion on Saturday.
The home side, on the other hand, go in search of all three points in order to keep the pace up with Ajax at the top of the Eredivisie table.
We say: PSV Eindhoven 2-0 PEC Zwolle
The home side will be expected to exhibit their superiority over the away side and cruise to all three points. The visitors have struggled at both ends of the pitch this term and we fancy PSV to heap more misery on them.
