Utrecht to Win
Heerenveen are in the grip of a crisis and following a dismal run of six straight defeats in the Eredivisie, De Superfriezen are one of the league’s most fragile outfits. With Ole Tobiasen still in temporary charge and two of their best players (Henk Veerman and Joey Veerman) transferred out, Heerenveen are in free fall and Utrecht can be backed with confidence to beat them as a result.
Under 2.5 Goals
Heerenveen have plundered a measly one goal in their last six Eredivisie fixtures combined and the strugglers failed to find the net in each of their last four matches at the Abe Lenstra Stadion. Each of their last two runouts on home soil finished 1-0 to the visiting team however, so we shouldn’t expect De Superfriezen to be steamrollered on Sunday. With that considered, a stake on under 2.5 goals appeals at the prices on offer.
Utrecht to Score First
Utrecht’s players will be determined to unsettle a wobbly looking Heerenveen on Sunday and they can do that with a fast start. Heerenveen have conceded the first goal in each of their last six Eredivisie scuffles and their self-belief at a low ebb, Utrecht will have plenty of weaknesses to target from the first whistle. As a consequence, the away side are available at a price worth backing to break the deadlock.
Heerenveen vs Utrecht: Match Preview and Team News
Heerenveen
While Heerenveen are still hovering in mid-table at present, their chances of being dragged into a late relegation battle are starting to heighten. Without a permanent manager and two of their best players following some bizarre January business, De Superfriezen are tumbling south at an alarming rate and they will be hoping to avoid their seventh straight defeat this weekend.
Utrecht
Utrecht’s results have been a mixed bag since the winter break in the Netherlands, though they were denied a third win in four games by the latest of Vitesse equalizers last weekend. Away from home, the Domstedelingen have won only one of their last seven assignments, though Head Coach Rene Hake will believe he can mastermind another success on the road at Heerenveen on Sunday.
