History

Historical chart of league performance

The club was founded on 16 November 1909 as EVV Eindhoven. It came from the fusion of Sparta and Eindhovia. It was decided to form a new club called E.V.V. (short for Eindhovense Voetbal Vereniging).[1][2] The club colours were blue and white, the blue stemming from the crest of the city Eindhoven at that time.[2] E.V.V. started to play in the Brabantse Voetbalbond, a regional league, but after a couple of years joined the NVB, the National League. In 1921 E.V.V. fused with Gestel (local team) and changed its name to E.V.V. Eindhoven.[1][2] At the end of the 30s, the club had its first success winning as the Dutch Cup, the KNVB Beker (1937). In 1939, E.V.V. Eindhoven were champions of the 1st Division Region South and played for the title of The Netherlands with teams like DWS, NEC, Ajax and Achilles 1894. They finished fourth.

In 1950, E.V.V. Eindhoven had their first Dutch international in Noud van Melis. Frans Tebak and Dick Snoek were to quickly follow in his footsteps.[1] In 1954, Eindhoven were the last Dutch league champions before the introduction of the professional league.[3][4] After turning professional in 1954, the club played in the Eredivisie until 1957, when Eindhoven were relegated to the Eerste Divisie. In 1969, they were even relegated to the Tweede Divisie. Two years later, the club secured promotion back to the Eerste Divisie, and in 1975, Eindhoven were promoted to the Eredivisie. In 1977, Eindhoven were relegated back to the Eerste Divisie, where it has remained ever since.[5] In 1997, E.V.V. Eindhoven moved from a professional club back to an amateur club. A new professional club SBV Eindhoven (Stichting Betaald Voetbal Eindhoven) was founded, and in 2002 changed its name to FC Eindhoven.[1][2]

In the 2009–10 season, FC Eindhoven qualified for playoffs to advance to the Eredivisie. Eindhoven advanced past the first round defeating AGOVV Apeldoorn 4–2 on aggregate. Eindhoven was pitted against relegation candidate Willem II and were defeated on a 3–2 aggregate. In 2011/2012, FC Eindhoven finished third, despite Ernest Faber leaving the club to join Dick Advocaat at PSV as his assistant in March 2012.[6] The club lost 3–0 to Helmond Sport over two legs, 1–0 in the first and 2–0 in the second, in the second round of the promotion playoffs.

Erwin Koeman, the replacement of Ernest Faber, left in the summer of 2012 and was replaced by John Lammers. Under Lammers the 2012–13 season finished in a disappointing 16th spot, only above two sides whose points totals had been set at zero due to bankruptcy.[7] The 2013–14 season was a big improvement with the club finishing sixth and qualifying for the promotion play-offs. There they encountered Sparta Rotterdam and lost to 3–1 on aggregate.

Results improved over the next two seasons culminating in a 2nd place finish in the 2014-15 season, but losing the promotion playoffs.[1][4] The club had another chance at promotion a season later, but failed again. The club then had a period of worse results, finishing 11th, 12th, and 14th in the next 3 seasons. In the 2019-20 season, FC Eindhoven were 13th when competition was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The next season they finished 15th, before an improvement in 2021-22 saw the club finish 3rd and play for promotion, losing in the first round 1-4 on aggregate to Almere City.[4][7] Results worsened again as the club achieved 8th and 14th in the next 2 seasons before an improvement in 2024-25 to 11th.

Rivalries

FC Eindhoven's former biggest rivalry is with neighbours PSV Eindhoven, against whom they contest the Lichtstad Derby ('City of Light Derby'). However, the clubs have not faced each other in league competition since the 1976–77 season. FC Eindhoven used to be a bigger club than PSV in the period between 1930 and 1955. PSV was a club for the workers of Phillips and seen as a club for the privileged while FC Eindhoven was seen as the people's club. In 2004, FC Eindhoven contracted a co-operation deal with neighbours PSV Eindhoven, meaning the possibility of swapping youth players between the two clubs.

Nowadays, Helmond Sport are seen as the biggest rivals. The clubs are about 15 km apart and have been playing in the same league for years.
