Two teams looking to steer clear of relegation danger face off in round 28 of the 2022-23 Eredivisie season as Vitesse welcome Go Ahead Eagles to GelreDome on Saturday.

The hosts head into this weekend's outing without a victory in seven matches, while the visitors have only lost of their most recent five outings.

We say: Vitesse 2-1 Go Ahead Eagles

Following a decent start to 2023, Vitesse have undergone a rough patch over the last couple of weeks, while Go Ahead Eagles have blown hot and cold since the turn of the year. We expect a fairly even contest with the home side narrowly getting the job done in the end.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Separated by eight points with seven games left to play in the 2022-23 Eredivisie season, AZ Alkmaar and Sparta Rotterdam lock horns at the AFAS Stadion on Saturday evening.

Off the back of a 3-2 victory in the reverse fixture back in August, the home side set out to complete a league double over their visitors for the first time since 2018.

We say: AZ Alkmaar 2-1 Sparta Rotterdam

AZ's dominance in this fixture points to a comfortable victory for them come the sound of the final whistle. While we expect anything but a straightforward affair here, we can see the home side carrying the day, albeit in narrow fashion.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Aiming to record a third successive victory across all competitions, high-flying PSV Eindhoven entertain the challenge of SBV Excelsior on Saturday evening.

Meanwhile, the away side make the journey to Philips Stadion having avoided defeat in consecutive matches for the first time since the turn of the year last time out.

We say: PSV Eindhoven 3-1 SBV Excelsior

PSV are averaging over three goals per game on home turf this term, and we can see them putting on another superb attacking display en route to a routine victory come the sound of the final whistle in this one.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Heerenveen and FC Volendam will go head-to-head at the Abe Lenstra Stadion in gameweek 28 of a highly pulsating 2022-23 Eredivisie season on Saturday evening.

Both teams were involved in a share of the spoils in their respective last outings, and they will be eager to get back to winning ways with all three points this weekend.

We say: Heerenveen 2-1 FC Volendam

Like Volendam, Heerenveen have had little problem in the goalscoring department of late and we expect both teams to score in this one. That said, Heerenveen possess the more well-rounded of the two squads and we are backing them to emerge triumphant.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
