Feyenoord, founded in 1908 and based at Stadion Feijenoord, remain one of the established powers of Dutch football. In the 2026-27 season they sit third in the Eredivisie, with a 38-man squad averaging 24 years of age, and have also competed in the Champions League league phase.
Their league form has been steady rather than spotless: three wins and three draws from the most recent six matches, including a 5-2 away win at Cambuur and a 1-0 victory at Sparta Rotterdam. At home, they have been open – averaging two goals scored and two conceded – while their away numbers are sharper, with three goals scored and one conceded per match.
Ayase Ueda and Gjivai Zechiël lead their scoring with three goals each, followed by Luciano Valente on two and Anis Hadj Moussa on one. Feyenoord have struck first inside 20 minutes in five of 17 league matches, enough to show early threat without suggesting a side built solely on fast starts.
For Celtic supporters, Feyenoord are a familiar type of European opponent: technically capable, productive in attack, and currently well placed domestically, though not without defensive gaps.
