ADO Den Haag vs Feyenoord Prediction
ADO Den Haag are currently at the bottom of the league table, eight points behind 16th-placed Emmen. They have lost four of their last five league games, and look set to play their next season in the Eerste Divisie unless something miraculous happens.
Feyenoord, on the other hand, are 5th in the Eredivisie table. Dick Advocaat's side have won only two of their last five league games, and the absence of key attacker Steven Berghuis could prove to be crucial.
Despite Berghuis' absence, Feyenoord should be able to beat a struggling ADO Den Haag.
Prediction: ADO Den Haag 0-2 Feyenoord
