The Eredivisie season began with NEC Nijmegen securing a 4-1 away victory against Willem II. NEC recovered from a previous loss to Telstar, with goals from Adam Tahaui, Tjaronn Chery, Bryan Linssen, and substitute Kaj Sierhuis. NEC manager Dick Schreuder noted the performance was a step forward but emphasized the need to manage physical demands ahead of Champions League play-offs against FK Bodø/Glimt. AZ Alkmaar moved to the top of the standings following a 4-1 win over FC Utrecht, with goals from Peer Koopmeiners, Weslley Patati, Mexx Meerdink, and Ayoub Oufkir. FC Groningen also achieved a 4-1 victory against ADO Den Haag, featuring goals from Thom van Bergen, Brynjólfur Willumsson, David van der Werff, and Nils Eggens. Both AZ Alkmaar and FC Groningen hold six points from two matches. In other results, FC Twente secured a 3-1 victory over PEC Zwolle. Feyenoord experienced a setback at De Kuip, drawing 2-2 against Go Ahead Eagles after squandering a 2-0 lead. The Eagles' comeback was driven by goals from Soren Tengstedt and Stefan Sigurdarson, marking Feyenoord’s first points loss of the season. Feyenoord manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst previously expressed concerns regarding the team’s ability to “maintain high intensity for the full ninety minutes.” AZ Alkmaar has maintained its undefeated status, most recently securing a 5-2 win over Go Ahead Eagles with standout performances from Lewis Schouten, Mateo Chávez, and Dave Kwakman. Ajax recorded a 0-4 victory against Telstar, with analysts noting an improved squad quality and a more controlled style of play. While Davy Klaassen contributed to the Ajax scoreline, some analysts expressed skepticism regarding high-cost signings like Marcos Leonardo, noting that players acquired on free transfers have shown more immediate value. In the fifth week of the season, Willem II suffered a 0-3 home defeat against Excelsior.
