Eredivisie week 28

Friday:
De Graafschap 2-0 Heerenveen
Saturday:
NEC v Willem II
PSV v Vitesse
Sparta v Heracles
Sunday:
Roda v Den Haag
AZ v Feyenoord
NAC v Ajax
Volendam v Utrecht
Twente v Groningen

A bit late with these this week, meaning that the round has already begun, with Heerenveen suffering an upset at De Vijverberg. That dents Heerenveen's challenge to the Champions League places while taking De Graafschap out of the relegation place. That may be temporary as Volendam welcome Utrecht on Sunday. Utrecht have virtually nothing to play for while Volendam are going OK at the moment. Roda need points as well, but ADO have been going well lately and will make it tough. Sparta are plummeting and Heracles can heap more misery on them while easing any lingering worries over their position.

With nine games to go and an eleven-point buffer, AZ can just about wrap up the title with a win over Feyenoord while Twente and Ajax are very much squabbling over second place. Ajax have the easier assignment this week going to Breda to face NAC. Twente play Groningen with the visitors still in European contention. PSV can close on Heerenveen, but can't pass them. They'll surely beat Vitesse who are in awful form. So are Willem II and they take on NEC at De Goffert with the Nijmegen side losing ground on the European places in recent weeks.
