All the two matches of Zwolle at the beginning of this season had goals over 2.5 ft. On the other side, four of the last five away matches of Utrecht were high-scoring. In that case, we expect this match to have goals over 2.5 ft.
Both teams are having an unimpressive defensive line this season. Zwolle allowed a total of 6 goals in the last five home matches while Utrecht allowed in 8 of the last 10 away matches. Therefore, goals are likely to come from both ends.
Both teams delivered an unimpressive losing start to this season. Zwolle looks comparatively weak as the team follows a displeasing form even at their home turf.
Therefore, we like to back Utrecht to win. While placing it as the main betting tip, we like to back the over 2.5 goals option as the second.
