Utrecht to Win

Even though both games last season between RKC and Utrecht ended in draws, we don’t see that happening now. After all, Utrecht still finished the season eight points ahead of RKC Waalwijk.

In addition to this, Utrecht is the better team on paper and they are hoping to get into the fight for some of European competitions this season, so we can see them starting the new season with a win here.

Over 2.5 Total Goals

We saw three or more goals in four of the last five head-to-head duels between RKC Waalwijk and Utrecht, so we expect this game to go over 2.5 total goals as well.

After all, RKC Waalwijk averaged 2.68 goals per game in the league last year, while Utrecht averaged 2.85 goals per game in Eredivisie last season.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

Both teams have scored in the last five h2h meetings between RKC Waalwijk and Utrecht, so we would hardly be surprised if we saw both teams score in this game as well.

Furthermore, both teams have scored in 65% of all RKC Waalwijk matches in Eredivisie last season, while the same is true for 62% of all Utrecht games in the league last year.

RKC Waalwijk vs Utrecht preview: A very close duel at the start of Eredivisie

RKC Waalwijk

The team from Waalwijk finished last season in the tenth place in the standings, which was pretty much in line with their expectations. Those expectations are same for the upcoming season as well, i.e. a mid-table finish and staying far away from relegation zone. RKC enters the new season without any injury issues.

Utrecht

Last season, Utrecht was seventh in the standings but pretty far away from getting a chance to compete in any European competitions. So, their fans are probably hoping that their team can make that step forward this season. Meanwhile, Akmum, Ramselaar, De Keijzer, and St. Jago are all on the team’s injury list ahead of the new season.
