Feyenoord will host Emmen at De Kuip on Wednesday (December 28) in a friendly.
The hosts have enjoyed a brilliant league campaign and are pushing for their first Eredivisie title since the 2016-17 season. They picked up a 5-1 comeback win over Excelsior in their last competitive outing, with four players getting on the scoresheet in a dominant display. Feyenoord will play the final of their five scheduled friendlies this week.
Emmen, meanwhile, endured a sluggish start to their season but began picking up points just before the international break and are now looking to exit the drop zone. They played out an entertaining 3-3 draw against defending champions Ajax in their last league game, scoring twice in the second half to overturn a two-goal deficit.
Wednesday's game will mark Emmen's final game of the year.
