Utrecht vs Twente Prediction & Match Preview

Twente took over Feyenoord in the third place of the Eredivisie standings thanks to a 2-1 victory in the last weekend’s derby in Enschede.

They now have eight wins, one draw, and one loss in the inaugural ten rounds of the season and they’ll have a great chance to prolong the exquisite start to the new campaign with another success in Gameweek 11 with the clash against the struggling Utrecht.

Twente boast one of the best defensive records in the league with just seven goals shipped in the inaugural ten rounds. They’ve allowed three in the last two outings, though.

The match with Utrecht gives the visitors a nice opportunity to keep things quiet at the back considering the fact the hosts have only found the net eight times so far in the season.

Utrecht, however, managed to claim four points from the last two league rounds, as a 4-3 victory over Ajax in the previous home game represented their second success of the season.

They held Fortuna Sittard to a goalless draw on the road last weekend but their overall form does not suggest a positive outcome in the match with one of the best teams in the division.

Latest Meetings

Twente have been more successful historically in this matchup but the home court advantage has played a big role in the process.

Utrecht thus have 12 wins, 10 draws, and 9 defeats in the last 31 clashes against Twente at Stadion Galgenwaard.

We’ve seen three or more goals scored just once in the previous four head to head meetings between these rivals.

The Verdict

It is very hard to look past the away win pick at the 1.57 odds here based on everything we’ve seen from these two outfits so far in the season.

We also like Twente to keep a clean sheet at the 2.50 odds given their strong defensive record after the opening ten rounds of the competition.
