In third spot NAC Breda picked three points at De Graafschap of Doetinchem, winning 2-0 on Friday.
Reigning champions PSV of Eindhoven fell further from the top after a 1-0 defeat to NEC in Nijmegen on Saturday.
Rotterdam’s Feyenoord, who have been in the doldrums of late because of a lack of scoring power, fired into action at home on Sunday, thrashing FC Utrecht 5-2.
