The championship race is very exciting this year. All 4 teams in the race are very ambitious. They are all waiting for their rivals to lose points and they want the race to heat up accordingly. At the moment there is not much point difference between them but it seems like feyenoord will take the championship this year. I guess it won't be clear until the end, there are important matches in the coming weeks. Ajax and PSV are the two highest scoring teams in the league. These teams are better at scoring goals than the other 2 teams.

PSV tried to dominate this match from the start of the match. And they succeeded. Although the match ended in a 1-1 draw at the end of the first half, in the second half we saw only the dominance of PSV players. PSV took a 3-1 lead by scoring two goals in the 54th and 56th minutes of the second half. However, Cambuur scored another goal in just 3 minutes. But they couldn't resist PSV. If PSV continues this performance, they are likely to climb the points table.

The Feyenoord team continues to perform well. And they are determined to win the title this season. They gave their entire Eredivisie side. And in every match, we see consistent performances from Feyenoord players.

PSV won 5-2 after losing 1-0 and added another game to their winning streak. PSV are in great form and they are playing really well. They have no problems in finding goals and we can say that this makes them comfortable. They are currently the 2nd highest goal scoring team in the league.
Feyenoord beat their opponent 2-1 with a dominant and good football from the beginning to the end of the match. They had trouble finding goals, but it was very easy for them to force their opponent into mistakes because they pressed. Thus, they won the match and took an important 3 points from the championship race.

last three rounds, all top four teams are winning their matches, but next week we have two interesting duels

first and better is between Feyenoord and Ajax, or Ajax and Feyenoord since it is played in Amsterdam, and that will be a great test for Feyenoord title ambitions, not losing there and they are making title statements
but also AZ is playing away with Twente, and PSV can use next round to get into the fight with a win over Vitesse

have to say that I didn't expected Feyenoord to connect few wins, and they won five matches since draw with PSV

Feyenoord again walking above a really tiny line, they are struggling so much again relegation teams I think his manager its gonna make some adjust because you can still having good result for a few matches, but seems like they need to improve.

The main problem from not winning easy this easiest matches its you cant rotate your team, so you can have tired players for a big game.

All 4 teams from leading group were huge favorites in their games, all 4 won, but probably only Ajax win can be considered as easy. Maybe final result in PSV game says it was easy, but I don' think so. Cambuur took a lead first and were in close fight for more than hour. Feyenoord win was most difficult. Volendam were leading big part of game and Feyenoord only managed to take a lead after own goal of Volendam player.
Ajax - Feyenoord can be one of crucial games in fight for title, but when teams is so close each other, it's not decider. And AZ and PSV is waiting for draw in this game without any doubts.

Feyenoord Volendam is almost over and as expected Feyenoord will still win this match. If you are often behind and still manage to decide your advantage in matches, then you can no longer call that luck, I think? In any case, it seems that way. It is also a quality to decide games in the last minutes of the game. For example, PSV has become champion a few times in a row through late hits. Nevertheless, the difference remains only 3 points with Ajax, which does have an excellent goal difference. So one misstep and the roles are reversed, and Feyenoord Ajax still has to be played. That will be very exciting.

PSV still won the match and it looks like Feyenoord will win as well, so everything is the same and the Eredivisie is still exciting. 9 rounds are still to be played and in the next round Ajax will play against Feyenoord. There could be a small preliminary decision if Feyenoord win.

Today we saw a lot of goal scoring matches. the first match of the day was between nihmegen and utrecht. the home side started the match fast. 2-0 up, they drew the match. It should be noted that they couldn't protect their 2-0 lead.
Ajax were away to heerenveen, who started the match fast and well, scored 3 goals in 20 minutes and we can say that they actually broke the match there. The home team mentally fell down there and it was difficult for them to turn the match around from that minute on. The match ended 4-2 and ajax is now the leader.

Maybe you're right and I was wrong. I thought Feyenoord would score a very simple victory this season, but nothing turns out to be less true unfortunately. And we don't know yet how the 2nd half will go. In any case, it is almost rest, so Volendam seems to be getting the maximum possible out of it at the moment through a 0-1 score, which will most likely also be the rest position. However, Feyenoord has often made the winning goal in the last 5 minutes of the match, we can be sure that Feyenoord will certainly score a goal in the 2nd half or perhaps several. It would be a big stunt if Volendam manages to win here.

I wouldn't be completely sure about Feyenoord yet. We are currently fifteen minutes into the game against Volendam and Volendam is now ahead with an early goal in the 12th minute. There is still enough time for Feyenoord to put things in order, but it is not really nice to be behind so early in the game. I think Feyenoord will still win this, and maybe we will even see a big result. They might have a chance for Volendam if they manage to make it to the break with 0-1. Then they have a serious chance to achieve a good result.

Ajax and PSV both did what they had to do and both won quite easily. Tonight Feyenoord still plays at home against Volendam, it would actually be a miracle if Feyenoord does not win this. I also think it will be a big result. Last year Volendam already lost a few times with extremely large numbers, I expect something similar tonight. in the battle for the championship, Feyenoord will certainly not drop any points tonight, that seems impossible to me. Feyenoord played a good game against Shaktar Donetsk in the El, but forgot to score. Ajax seems to have recovered quite well after the dramatic series of 7 consecutive matches without winning. Schreuder has brought the club to a very low level, and there now seems to be more harmony in the team since Heitinga took over the group.

the game ended with a victory for ajax, although ajax managed to score 4 goals in this game they conceded 2 goals, this is not a good thing because it shows weakness in the defense of ajax mainly because in the next game ajax will play against the leader of the league that currently has the best defense, having only conceded 22 goals in 24 games, I hope that ajax improve a lot in defense so that in the next game they can leave with a good result, as for SC Heerenveen, this is a bad result for them, but the fact that they managed to score 2 goals is something that deserves a reason to be more motivated for the next games

---

PSV Eindhoven 5 - 2 Cambuur

this result is a little funny because Cambuur is in the last position in the table, but in the last 3 games before this game they managed to score goals in all 3 games and on the other side we have PSV who have been constantly conceding goals, in the case of this game PSV won because they managed to score a lot of goals, but the merit is in Cambuur that even in the last position they managed to score 2 goals, if they improve in defense they could manage to win the games and they would be in a better position in the table

NEC Nijmegen 2 - 2 FC Utrecht

these two teams came into this game with very similar results from the last 4 games, for me the result of this game was very unpredictable, that's why I'm not surprised with this draw, the two teams are fighting to stay in the league, there's no big objects, this result benefits both teams, but NEC needs to win in the next games and hope for the teams in the relegation zone to keep losing games, this is the only way for NEC to stay in the league

Ajax leads 3:1 at the break with a possession of over 60%, I don't think Ajax will lose the game anymore. Ajax will increase the pressure on Feyenoord and PSV, who play first and almost have to win. Feyenoord have to win to keep the lead and PSV have to win than AZ won as well.

I know there is still a long journey ahead. Each team will play 10 more matches. And since the points gap between the teams is small, the points table can change at any time. I know this very well. And this is why my favorite team is the Ajax team. T team is very experienced. And they know very well how to consistently perform well. The performances of Feyenoord, PSV, and Ajax are now quite regular. And so these three teams have a chance to win the title. The Eredivisie has become competitive. The team that consistently plays well and can win the title will win.

When I look at the matches to be played next week, I see that only ajax is going away from the teams in the championship race. PSV will be an easy match for them as they will play the last team in the league. Out of the 4 teams, it seems to me that ajax will be the most difficult team again. Az alkmaar will also be a bit relaxed as they will play the team one above the last team in the league. They should also be in high spirits after beating Lazio during the week.

Yeah, Ajax chances to be winner of this season but any prediction still can go wrong because all teams are doing good job and their performance and quality is also at good level which is helping them for having good connection for the title AZ Alkmaar is also doing good their last night win at Rome against Lazio is also impressive with this look like they are gone have good chance for the next round as well with Feyenoord is also doing good with their next match is against Shakhtar Donetsk which is also good but with the current form of Feyenoord they also can qualify which will be good for the Eredivisie because first time we have top two teams like Ajax and PSV are out of the European competitions and others are still having good results.

After few bad weeks now Ajax is also on good run in Dutch League and their form is giving impression now they are ready for the challenge of title because they have better players and sources, but this season is surely going to be competitive for the top four teams with any prediction is surely not easy.

The Eredivisie league has been very competitive this season. Fourth-placed PSV is just six points behind table-topping Feyenoord. And the important thing is that these four teams are in very good form right now. And I think every team has an equal chance to win the title. So if a team loses points in a match then their position will change in the points table. But my guess is this season's champions will be Ajax or Feyenoord. I consider the Ajax team more favorite. However, they are now second in the points table.

Yes, I just look at the statistic above, and the bet is also leaning toward favorite to Ajax. Heerenven's statistic is not good also even they play as host. Maybe we can see many goals created by Ajax like on September 2022 (5-0), but we can't rule out the fighting spirit of Heerenven players as they play on twente. Maybe if Ajax defender is careless, is not impossible they hold it in draw again.

Just as it is in other leagues. The closeness in points between the top 4 clubs nm the Eredivisie table standing is making it really difficult to predict who will win the title this season. No one wants to be left behind I'm the modern day football. Unlike before where you will have Ajax on the top position in the standing,  leading with more than 10 points, Feyenoord,  Alkmaar, and Psv are really showing interest also and is making the competition much more interesting.
