Feyenoord will face Zwolle at the Sportpark Smitshoek on Saturday in a friendly clash between the two teams.
De Stadionclub enjoyed a brilliant campaign last season as they secured their first Eredivisie title since the 2016-17 campaign to record a 16th league triumph. They picked up 82 points from 34 games, equalling their highest-ever points tally in the Dutch top flight as they clinched a return to the UEFA Champions League group stages.
Following the conclusion of a successful campaign, head coach Arne Slot was highly linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur but later extended his stay at Feyenoord by signing a new contract. He will lead the side's first pre-season game this weekend.
Zwolle were relegated from the Eredivisie in the 2021-22 campaign for the first time in a decade but have now secured an immediate return to the Dutch top-flight. They finished second in the Eerste Divisie last season with 85 points from 38 games.
Feyenoord ended the previous campaign with four wins from their final five games. They will be looking to hit the ground running in their pre-season campaign this weekend before going on to play Club Brugge and Benfica later in the month.
Zwolle closed out their season with back-to-back victories and will aim to pick up where they left off. They have, however, struggled for results in this fixture and could lose here.
Prediction: Feyenoord 3-0 Zwolle
Tip 1 - Result: Feyenoord
Tip 2 - Goals - Over/under 2.5 - Over 2.5 goals (Four of the last six matches between the two teams have produced more than 2.5 goals)
Tip 3 - Both teams to score: NO (Both sides have found the back of the net in just two of their last six league matchups)
