Utrecht vs Willem II Predictions

Utrecht could only draw 1-1 away at Heerenveen last time out and will be looking to go one better at home to Willem II on Sunday. The visitors won 1-0 at home to VVV in their last match but were heavily beaten in their last away game against Heracles.

All of the stats point towards both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals being produced in Sunday’s match and we’re backing Utrecht to claim all three points courtesy of a 3-2 win.

The recent performances of both clubs in the Eredivisie show just why we’re predicting goals in Sunday’s clash, as both teams scored in each of Utrecht’s last six and three of Willem II’s last five matches, while over 2.5 goals were produced in four of Utrecht’s last six matches and three of Willem II’s last five games.

The form of the hosts in their own backyard and the visitors’ performances on the road also add weight to our prediction for Sunday’s match, as Utrecht have won two of their three home games this season and both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in each of those three games, while Willem II lost their last away game 4-1 against Heracles but both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in each of their three away games so far this season.

Utrecht have scored and conceded in all of their last six league games and have picked up two wins, two draws, and suffered two defeats during that period, while Willem II have only managed one clean sheet in their last six attempts and have only failed to score in two of those six games.

We’re confident that both teams will score and over 2.5 goals will be produced on Sunday and have predicted a final scoreline of 3-2 in Utrecht’s favour. Games between these two clubs have been very close in recent seasons and both teams head into Sunday’s clash having scored and conceded a decent amount of goals as well as playing to a very similar level so far this season. With the home advantage, we expect Utrecht to just do enough to claim all three points in what should be an exciting, end to end, goal-filled ninety minutes.
