ADO Den Haag 3-1 Sparta Rotterdam result, stats and report

SC Heerenveen were ruthless and clinical at Sparta Rotterdam, scoring four without reply to hand the struggling hosts a humiliating home defeat. Courtens, Trenskow, Rivera, and Farji all got on the scoresheet as Heerenveen outclassed a Sparta side that offered nothing going forward.

ADO Den Haag controlled possession, created the better chances, and still could not win a home match. A goal from substitute Donát Bárány cancelled out Fabian Kvam's first-half strike, but a point does nothing to fix what is wrong at this club.

Sven Mijnans scored three times as PSV Eindhoven dismantled Sparta Rotterdam 4-1 at home, extending their unbeaten Eredivisie run with a performance that was dominant from the first whistle.

Twente made it four wins from their last five Eredivisie matches with a controlled 2-0 home victory over ADO Den Haag, who offered little going forward and were second best in every department that matters.

Sparta Rotterdam host Willem II on Saturday evening with both sides desperately short of wins and, frankly, short of basic defensive standards. This one has goals written all over it, and not in a good way for either backline.

PSV Eindhoven arrive in Den Haag having scored twenty goals in their last five Eredivisie matches. ADO have conceded fourteen in five. This is not a game. It is a test of character.

Telstar and ADO Den Haag meet on Sunday with a combined four wins from their last ten Eredivisie matches. Something has to give, but neither side is giving much confidence.

Two leaky defences, a recent head-to-head that ended 2-2, and both sides desperately needing three points. Saturday at De Adelaarshorst has the makings of a proper match.
