Cambuur

Utrecht

Relegation is looming for Cambuur and it isn’t getting any better right now. They’ve lost five straight games, all of their match-ups since the calendar flipped to 2016. They’ve conceded more goals than any other team, 53, in the Dutch Eredivisie.

FC Utrecht are playing good football. They followed an impressive 3-1 quarter-final cup win away from home against PSV in midweek action with a spirited, though ultimately fruitless effort, losing 2-0 at home to the same opponent in the league. They’ve now lost three straight games in Dutch Eredivisie action slipping to ninth in the table, but a clash with Cambuur could represent an opportunity.

Head-to-Head

The two teams played out an incredible game earlier this season, eventually drawing 3-3. Last year, Cambuur won both matches, each by 3-1. Utrecht won a friendly between the two teams right out of the Christmas break.

Team News

Defender Mart Dijkstra could return to the line-up on Friday for Cambuur, who are dealing with a very long injury list, including Erik Bakker, Martijin Barto, Xander Houtkoop, Darryl Lachman, Beren-Jan Schootstra, Calvin MacIntosh and Marlon Pereira.

Jeff Hardeveld, Rubio Rubin and Willem Janssen are all back in training and once again could be in line for a return to Utrecht’s starting XI. Meanwhile, Sean Klaiber and Louis Nganioni are both expected to remain sidelined.

Reason for Betting Tips

FC Utrecht are a good team, Cambuur are getting beaten by everyone and we’re getting the straightforward win line at a very reasonable, even generous 10/11. We’ll back them to pull a win out of the bag and also to score some serious goals in this game.
