Steven Berghuis starts the away match against Feyenoord with Ajax. He didn’t get any playing time in the last league matches with NEC and FC Twente, but has recovered enough from a flu to kick off.
Berghuis plays football for the first time in a sold-out Kuip since his fraught transfer from Feyenoord to Ajax in the summer of 2021. He was seriously threatened shortly after his transfer. Mohammed Kudus plays in the rush hour at Ajax. Edson Álvarez replaces the suspended Devyne Rensch in the center of defense. Trainer Alfred Schreuder has no room for Brian Brobbey, Steven Bergwijn and Owen Wijndal in his basic team.
Feyenoord appears with Mats Wieffer at the kick-off. Quinten Timber is sitting on the bench when the game starts at 2.30 PM. Igor Paixão, Danilho and Alireza Jahanbakhsh form the attack of the leader of the Eredivisie. Feyenoord starts the game with a lead of 5 points over Ajax.
Feyenoord: Bijlow; Pedersen, Geertruida, Hancko and Hartman; Wieffer, Szymanski and Kökçü; Jahanbakhsh, Danilo and Paixao.
Ajax: Rulli; Sanchez, Timber, Alvarez in Bassey; Klaassen, Berghuis in Taylor; Conceição, Kudus in Tadic.
