Eredivisie Matchday 1 Preview (August 9–10, 2025) – 9.-10.8. 2025

NEC Nijmegen vs Excelsior (09.08.2025, 16:45)

Tip: NEC Nijmegen to win

Nijmegen starts under new coach Dick Schreuder and immediately hosts a freshly promoted side at the Goffertstadion. Excelsior is returning to the Eredivisie but begins away from home, still finding their rhythm – Schreuder’s pressing game and high energy are often visible early on. While Excelsior has a slight historical H2H edge, they now face a fired-up home crowd and a fresh managerial setup, which boosts NEC’s chances.

Feyenoord vs NAC Breda (09.08.2025, 18:45)

Tip: Feyenoord to win

The first league evening at De Kuip is led by Robin van Persie – the return of a club legend to the dugout is a perfect spark for the atmosphere. NAC is stable after last season’s return, but the home side’s quality, squad depth, and very favourable recent H2H record (including emphatic wins) set a clear picture: Feyenoord is expected to claim all three points.

Heerenveen vs FC Volendam (09.08.2025, 20:00)

Tip: Heerenveen to win

Volendam enters the opening round as fresh second-tier champions but also as a side that often opts for caution early on. Heerenveen usually makes solid starts at the Abe Lenstra Stadion and knows how to punish defensive transition mistakes. The emotional angle (Veerman’s past at Heerenveen) adds spice, but on the pitch the hosts should have control.

PSV vs Sparta Rotterdam (09.08.2025, 21:00)

Tip: PSV to win

The defending champions open the season in front of a packed Philips Stadion, and the opponent is symbolic – PSV clinched the title against Sparta in each of the last two seasons. Peter Bosz’s team has a consistent playing identity, fresh confidence from winning the Super Cup, and a strong bench. Sparta is well-organized, but PSV’s home intensity is usually decisive.

PEC Zwolle vs Twente (10.08.2025, 12:15)

Tip: Twente to win

Twente has long been a consolidated top-half side with a clear game plan and quality both on the wings and in central areas. Zwolle can be awkward at home but tends to struggle in open games – Twente’s transitional play and tempo should tilt the match in their favour.

Ajax vs Telstar (10.08.2025, 14:30)

Tip: Ajax to win

After a disappointing spring, Ajax is now led by John Heitinga, and in the opening round welcomes Telstar – making a historic Eredivisie return after 47 years – to the Johan Cruyff Arena. There will be plenty of emotion, but the gap in individual quality, squad depth, and set-piece strength is significant. For Telstar, the return itself is a highlight, but Ajax is expected to dominate at home.

AZ Alkmaar vs Groningen (10.08.2025, 14:30)

Tip: AZ Alkmaar to win

AZ traditionally starts seasons strongly and uses tempo and set pieces effectively at the AFAS Stadion. Groningen is stabilizing their squad and playing model after turbulent years, but away from home at the start of the season they often struggle with compactness – AZ’s technical edge and rhythm should be enough.

Utrecht vs Heracles (10.08.2025, 16:45)

Tip: Utrecht to win

Galgenwaard is often a strong factor at the start of the campaign – Utrecht plays with high intensity off the ball and switches quickly after regaining possession. Heracles tends to lower ambitions away from home and struggles with defensive reshaping. The home setting and a more dynamic midfield should tilt the match Utrecht’s way.
