Prediction Feyenoord vs Fortuna Sittard 2025/2026 season – Betting Tips for the Eredivisie on 17/09/2025

Match build-up: Rotterdam hosts a one-sided billing

Feyenoord welcome Fortuna Sittard to Stadion Feijenoord on 17 September in what looks, on paper, like a mismatch. The hosts arrive sitting top of the Eredivisie after four straight league wins, nine goals scored and just one conceded. The confidence in Rotterdam is palpable: Feyenoord’s home form is particularly impressive — three clean sheets from four home appearances and an attacking output that has produced 3 goals at home and 6 away in the early season sample. Stadion Feijenoord, packed to a capacity of 51,177 on matchdays, is set to be a cauldron under referee Allard Lindhout’s watch.

Fortuna Sittard have shown they are no pushovers — two wins, a draw and a single loss in the league so far, with an eye-catching 9 goals scored and 7 conceded. Their recent 3-1 victory at Telstar brought momentum and a standout performance from Makan Aïko, whose 8.38 rating in that fixture underlined Fortuna’s attacking threat. But the trip to Rotterdam is a stiffer test than Telstar; away stats show Fortuna have failed to keep a clean sheet on the road this term and their average of 14.5 fouls suggests they can be stretched and provoked under pressure.

Key form and numbers that matter

Numbers favour Feyenoord heavily. The bookmakers do too: home victory odds sit around 1.30, translating to roughly a 77% implied probability. Feyenoord’s dominance in possession and chance creation is visible in their higher averages for total shots (69 to Fortuna’s 65) and shots inside the box (50 to 44), and their average of 101.5 attacks per game dwarfs Fortuna’s 92.5. Defensive solidity is another pillar — three clean sheets at home and just one goal conceded away for Feyenoord contrast with Fortuna’s zero clean sheets on the road.

Head-to-head tells a similar story: the last meeting in April ended 2-0 to Feyenoord at Fortuna’s ground, reinforcing a psychological edge for Arne Slot’s side when these teams meet. Recent encounters and the current run of results suggest Feyenoord will control tempo and territory, forcing Fortuna into a reactive game and looking to punish errors.

Conclusion and betting suggestion

Given the contrast in home defensive stability, overall attacking control, and the market’s clear confidence in Feyenoord, the strongest single-market selection is the 1X2 market. Backing Feyenoord to win is the most logical play here, with the available odds around 1.30 reflecting both form and probability. Betting suggestion: 1X2 — Home (Feyenoord to win) at odds ~1.30.
