Utrecht vs Twente Match Preview

In the previous round of Eredivisie, Utrecht failed to get all three points against Groningen, staying at 0-0. This was their 3rd draw after 4 rounds in the league, and J. van den Brom's team are now sitting at the 8th place of the standings with 6 points, remaining undefeated so far. The recent h2h of these two teams shows Utrecht as the stronger side, having 5 wins out of the 6 last matches.

The good news for the team is the return of their goalkeeper, M. Paes, having recovered from Covid-19. On the other hand, the attacker M. Mahi will miss today's match due to injury. Attacker E. Elia is not yet 100% fit to play the whole 90 minutes, he has played only some minutes so far.

Twente faced Willem in the previous round, taking their second win in the league by 3-0. The team of R. Jans remains unbeaten having 11 points so far, with a record of 3 wins and 2 draws after 5 rounds.

Defender N. Markelo is unavailable after his bad injury, while defender K. Pierie will be also unavailable tonight. Attacker A. Jeremejeff recovered from his injury and he will probably play for some minutes.

I expect an exciting match, between two sides that can easily score goals. Utrecht has a great recent record when playing against Twente, however, visitors have a better start in this season, having scored in every game so far. I will take the risk and choose Twente to win here, the offered odds are very tempting.
