#### Matches
### Friendlies
#### Guadiana Trophy

As part of the pre-season preparations, Feyenoord participated in the Guadiana Trophy. All matches were played at the Complexo Desportivo de Vila Real de Santo António in Vila Real de Santo António, Portugal. As there were only three teams in this year's edition of the Guadiana Trophy, a penalty shootout was carried out at the end of each fixture to make sure that a clear winner could be selected. Feyenoord lost both matches against Aston Villa and Benfica and finished on the last third place in the tournament.
