Utrecht Preview – Can Utrecht consolidate top seven spot?
Although they’ve posted mixed results in recent times in the Dutch top flight, Utrecht have still held onto 7th place and the last position in the Europa League play-off spots in the Eredivisie prior to tonight’s encounter against lowly Den Haag.
Recent victories over Groningen and Heracles have been tempered by defeats to RKC Waalwijk and Feyenoord, while last time out in the Eredivisie, Utrecht gained a point in a 3-3 draw away from home at PEC Zwolle.
However, it’s been their recent results at home which have been the major concern as the hosts have lost their last 3 home matches on the trot at their Stadion Galgenwaard, falling to defeats against AZ, Waalwijk and Feyenoord amidst an overall home record of 5-0-4 19/10.
Utrecht will therefore be desperate to return to the kind of form which saw them collect wins against PSV 3-0 and a 6-0 romp against Fortuna Sittard, and they won’t get a better chance than this clash against Den Haag to do so.
Den Haag Preview – Can Den Haag win back-to-back?
A 2-0 home win against bottom club RKC Waalwijk last time out in the Eredivisie ended a dismal run of 7 matches without a win in the Dutch top flight which also included defeats to Fortuna Sittard, Heracles and a heavy 6-1 rout at the hands of Ajax.
With just a total of 2 wins out of their last 14 matches overall in the Eredivisie, Den Haag’s task on Friday night looks a very tough one as they attempt to win back-to-back matches in the Dutch top flight since the end of August/early September.
Results away from home also continue to be a concern for the visitors as they possess an ordinary looking away record of 2-0-7 10/23 which includes losing 6 of their last 7 matches on their travels.
Along with keeping just 2 clean sheets so far on the road, Den Haag have conceded 2 goals or more in 6 of their 9 away matches to date, and this could be the determining factor in tonight’s clash at Utrecht.
