Feyenoord Undefeated After Ten Matches But Trails Last Season’s Point Total
Feyenoord holds the top spot in the Eredivisie after ten matches, yet the club’s current point total trails the tally recorded at the exact same stage in a previous season, according to sources. Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s squad sits at the summit of the Dutch league following a 1-1 draw against PSV, maintaining an unbeaten record that mirrors rare historical starts for the Rotterdam club.
Despite remaining without a defeat through the first ten fixtures, Feyenoord has collected 24 points from its opening matches. At this exact juncture last campaign, the team had accumulated 25 points. That side ultimately finished the season with 65 points after adding only 40 points across the remaining 24 fixtures.
Comparing Identical Fixtures Against Eredivisie Opponents
When measuring performance against the exact same opponents at the same venues—with newly promoted clubs matched against the previous season’s relegated sides—the current squad shows a marginal improvement of a single point. Against the ten opponents faced so far this term, last season’s squad secured 23 points compared to the current 24.
Points dropped in draws against Go Ahead Eagles and ADO Den Haag account for the deficit relative to last season’s pace. Conversely, Feyenoord has registered better results in fixtures against NEC, AZ, and PSV. A projection based on matching last season’s results across the remaining 24 fixtures yields 66 points, though analysts note this serves as a baseline comparison rather than a strict forecast.
Historical Parity With Championship and Unbeaten Campaigns
The last instance of Feyenoord reaching ten matches without a defeat occurred in the 2020-21 season under Dick Advocaat, when the team recorded six wins and four draws. Prior to that, the 2016-17 championship-winning squad under Van Bronckhorst opened with nine victories and one draw through ten rounds.
