Eindhoven Utrecht II betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This will be an interesting duel as it brings together two of the teams with the fewest shots, and particularly, those that struggle to hit the target. Eindhoven holds the favoritism, having won their last two home games, while Jong Utrecht is the worst away team in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025 and is still searching for their first away win. However, we’ll bet on Under 3 Asian Goals, as this bet has only lost in 4 of Eindhoven’s 12 home games and 4 of Jong Utrecht’s 12 away matches.

Preview
Eindhoven and Utrecht II face at Jan Louwers Stadion, in a match for the 27th round of the Eerste Divisie. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 09‑12‑2024, FC Eindhoven got an away win by (0‑4). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 3 wins and 2 draws in the last 5 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 11‑03‑2024, in a match for the Eerste Divisie, FC Eindhoven won by (3‑0). The goals of the match were scored by Neal Viereck (37' Autogolo), Ozan Kökcü (11' ) and Farouq Limouri (63' ) for Eindhoven. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Eindhoven

The home team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 35 points won, after 10 wins, 5 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against TOP Oss, by (3‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against MVV Maastricht, by (2‑0). This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. For the league, Eindhoven won 12 points out of 30 possible points, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 26 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 13 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

In this match, Eindhoven aims for a third consecutive home win, but the problem is that the team has the second-worst possession in the league (44.2%). This makes Eindhoven the second-worst finisher (an average of 10.7 shots per match) and also the third team with the fewest shots on goal (4.3 shots on target per game). Defensively, Eindhoven tends to be quite permissive, being the second-least fouling team in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025 (an average of 10.6 fouls per match). Coach Maurice Verberne could repeat the same starting lineup as last time, based on a 4-2-3-1 tactical setup, but it is expected that at least right-winger Sven Blummel will be available again after missing the last game. Striker Rangelo Janga also missed out due to an injury sustained in the penultimate round, as did midfielder Boris van Schuppen, who has not played since being injured in the 21st round match on January 10, 2025. Interestingly, Blummel and Schuppen are joint-second in assists in the league (both with 8 assists, though Boris van Schuppen has played in 21 matches and Sven Blummel in 25). In their absence, the standout player has been defensive midfielder Achraf El Bouchataoui (with 4 goals and 5 assists in 25 appearances).

Confirmed Lineup: Jorn Brondeel, Collin Seedorf, Terrence Douglas, Tibo Persyn, Farouq Limouri, Achraf El Bouchataoui, D. Huisman, Dyon Dorenbosch, Hugo Deenen, Rangelo Janga, Joey Konings.
Coach: E. Brandts.

Analysis Utrecht II

The away team is currently in the 19th position of the league, with 14 points won, after 2 wins, 8 draws and 14 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against FC Den Bosch, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Telstar, by (6‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 31 conceded; against 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 30 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Utrecht II has a record of 3 draws and 7 losses, so they have won 3 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 4 losses in the last away matches and they haven't won any of the last 12 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 11 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 4 of the last 24 matches for the Eerste Divisie, they have reached half‑time in front in all of those 4 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. In 24 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 18 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 12 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 6 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Jong Utrecht is a reserve team that competes in the Eerste Divisie solely to give experience to young players who are being prepared to join the main Utrecht squad for the Eredivisie and other elite competitions. Even so, it is embarrassing for the club to be on a poor run of four rounds without a win, including three consecutive defeats in which they failed to score. In fact, Jong Utrecht is not in last place in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025 only because Vitesse had 27 points deducted as punishment. Jong Utrecht also has the worst away record in the league (13.8% win rate, with just 5 points from 12 matches). Their struggles are largely down to the attack, which is the second-worst in the league (20 goals scored in 24 rounds, averaging 0.8 goals per game), and their away performance mirrors this (9 goals scored in 12 games, averaging 0.7 goals per away game). These low numbers are explained by the fact that the team is the third-worst in terms of shots (10.9 shots per match) and especially the second-worst for shots on target (3.7 shots on target per match). Defensively, Jong Utrecht has the third-worst record (51 goals conceded in total, averaging 2.1 goals conceded per game), a stat that holds up away from home (26 goals conceded away, averaging 2.1 goals conceded per game on the road). Additionally, the team has the worst clean sheet record (only 2 clean sheets in 24 games). Coach Ivar van Dinteren may stick with the same starting lineup as before, using a 4-5-1 tactical formation, with a focus on Danish player Andreas Dithmer, who seems to have secured the starting spot after Tom de Graaff became the second-worst goalkeeper in the competition (averaging 2.1 goals conceded per game after allowing 31 goals in 15 matches).

Confirmed Lineup: Kevin Gadellaa, Nazjir Held, Wessel Kooy, Per Kloosterboer, Massien Ghaddari, Sil van der Wegen, Ivar Jenner, Gibson Yah, Georgios Charalampoglou, Lynden Edhart, Bjorn Menzo.
Coach: I. van Dinteren.
