A Glimpse at the Eredivisie 2024/25: Mid-Season Recap

First thing to remember in our analysis is that we evaluate all the players who played in the Eredivisie 2024/25 until the Mid-Season mark (Matchweek 17 included). In other words, we evaluate and filter the best performers in the league. Assessing all the positions, coupled with the evaluation of a lot of factors and indicators in their games, we can generate the ratings for the players performances. As a matter of fact, in this type of analysis, the type of formation played doesnt influence or limit the ratings system.

Team Average Rating

Accordingly to our algorithm, PSV Eindhoven, Ajax, Feyenoord and AZ Alkmaar were the best performing teams. While PSV was our best team, Ajax also had great dynamics. As shown above, PSV has played really good football, with a Team Average Rating higher than everyone by, at least, 0.5 Average Rating Units.

Best Players

In terms of the best players in the Eredivisie, Youri Baas had undoubtedly great performances. Equally, at a really high level, we can spot Paxten Aaronson: Utrecht’s Midfielder has been one of the most consistently good players in the League. A fun fact about this list is the lack of players from AZ Alkmaar despite being one of the best rated teams.

Best Young Players

All things considered, the Eredivisie agglomerates and produces a lot of talented players. Therefore, it’s no surprise that this list includes great players like Ryan Flamingo, Jorrel Hato, Paxten Aaronson, Youri Baas, Rensch and Ruben van Bommel.
