Basement clash, dress rehearsal, and a beautiful return in the Eredivisie ladies and gentlemen | Watch four matches via livestream
In the Eredivisie men's division, five matches will be played this weekend, while in the women's division, due to the World Cup where the TeamNL water polo ladies are competing until Sunday, only one match is scheduled.
The women of De Ham and Het Ravijn will face each other tomorrow night in Krommenie. The home team lost to De Zaan last week, while Het Ravijn drew against PSV. De Ham is four points behind the visitors, so a win could bring them back into contention. The team from Krommenie can climb a spot and overtake Polar Bears if they secure three points. It is also a good warm-up match for the ladies of De Ham for their Nordic League campaign.
The men of ZV De Zaan and GZC Donk are preparing for the Challenger Cup quarterfinals. At the bottom of the Eredivisie, there is an absolute cracker upcoming. MNC Dordrecht and Polar Bears are both on three points, making it a 'six-pointer' for the teams. Sander Roels will make his return to the squad for Polar Bears this weekend. Title contenders UZSC will host Het Ravijn, the fifth-placed team in the Eredivisie. Both teams, with Flemming Kastrop in the pool, carry the good vibe from last week when they won their first match of 2025 into De Krommerijn.
PSV played an excellent game against Amersfoort last week and know that a good result against ZPB is important to catch up in points and ranking with ZVL and their Saturday opponents. For ZPB, winning is crucial as victory could propel them to the fourth spot. Amersfoort aims to keep the pressure on UZSC; a win against ZVL will help them secure the third position and if UZSC drops points, Amersfoort could even reach level points.
The first match of this round is between De Ham and BZ&PC. The men from Bodegraven aim to translate their upward trend in the game to tangible points tomorrow. The home team defeated Dordrecht in late November but then suffered two Eredivisie defeats after a splendid Nordic League group stage.
