Back to the league already on Sunday afternoon against a side which has improved lately imo. Beating Vitesse away and also beating Willem II last week , though it must be said that Willem II are probably having their worst period in the league for a long time.
RBC will no doubt be coming for a point and a season or two ago, we only managed to beat them 1-0 in the last minute thanks to an opportunistic Paauwe shot, so all in all I doubt we'll have the same easy ride we had against them in Roosendaal where it could have easily been 0-10 to us.
As for us, Östlund will be back and I reckon he'll slot back into the team as Zuiverloon looked too much like a kid for my liking against Sporting. Nice to see Gianni play already but it's still too early imo for Zuiverloon to be in the first eleven. I'd like to see Bahia given a chance too as Gibbs hasn't really convinced me on his European outings. Maybe in the league Gibb's good but certainly not in Europe, though I think tbh Gullit will stick with Gibbs.
As for the rest, I don't really mind what'll play as up front or in midfield as it won't really make such a big difference. Hopefully Kuijt and Ono will have good days to lead us to a comfortable victory but if we play like schoolboys again, it could yet be very tough to break them down.
My prediction: 2-0 Feyenoord
