Furthermore, there was the match of AZ Alkmaar vs. Heracles Almelo, which finally ended in a draw. Yet another very enjoyable match was the 4-0 victory of AZ Alkmaar over Fortuna Sittard. Here, on Oddspedia, we provide you with a detailed overview and statistics of the upcoming Eredivisie matchday in the Netherlands– detailed information forall the games on the fixtures, the teams and their recent form.
Matchweek 8 Highlights
Probably the most anticipated match will be Sparta Rotterdam vs PSV Eindhoven on 10/08/2023 at 14:45. PSV Eindhoven has the upper hand in this match, since they are currently on the first place in the table. However, they still want to make sure to keep their rank. PSV Eindhoven won their last match against FC Volendam, while Sparta Rotterdam didn't manage to score 3 points. So it will be exciting to see if they'll take this match as a chance to compensate for this. With two wins and two losses out of their last five games Sparta Rotterdam also had a quite mixed performance lately on which they could now improve. PSV Eindhoven, on the other hand, performed better: They managed to win most of their last games.
Another match fans are looking forward to takes place on 10/08/2023 at 12:30. Here, Fortuna Sittard (currently in 9th place) will face FC Twente Enschede (3rd place). Fortuna Sittard might be in a weaker position here, since they didn't manage to win their last match against AZ Alkmaar–while SC Heerenveen was beaten by FC Twente Enschede. Looking at the teams' performance in their last matches can also be an indicator about their current form: Fortuna Sittard had quite a mixed performance lately. They won 1 and lost 2 of their last five games, making their performance in the upcoming match harder to guess. FC Twente Enschede on the other hand was victorious in most of their latest games, so their chances to win might be a bit bigger.
People are also excited to see PEC Zwolle fight against Feyenoord Rotterdam. They currently are in 11th place and 4th place, making their match interesting to watch. Feyenoord Rotterdam won their last match against Go Ahead Eagles, while PEC Zwolle didn't manage to win against Heracles Almelo. Now, Feyenoord Rotterdam hast the chance to show that they're the better team altogether. You can also look at their recent performance to get an idea of their chances in the upcoming match: Feyenoord Rotterdam managed to be victorious in most of their recent games, winning 5 out of their last 5.

Current Eredivisie Standings
PSV Eindhoven are currently leading the table with 21 points and a goal differencial of 21 (23 scored and 2 received). So far, they have won 7 out of their 7 matches–but since they're only leading by 2 points, AZ Alkmaar (2/19pts) could take the lead this week, if they win their match against Ajax Amsterdam (15/5pts). Of course, PSV Eindhoven would also have to lose their match. In any case, players will give their best to help their team win. But not only the top of the table has some interesting matches to offer–teams in the lower half also have to fight hard to stay in their league and not finish the season in last place. If they fight hard, FC Volendam could actually stay in the league, since they're only 4 points behind Ajax Amsterdam (15/5pts), who are in need of points to not face relegation.
The biggest positive change in position, compared to the last matchday, has been made by Almere City FC (8/10 points), who moved up two positions and are now in 8th place in the league. On the other side, Go Ahead Eagles (16/4 points) made the biggest loss in positions, losing a total of two ranks.
