Utrecht Preview – Can Utrecht grab 1st leg lead?
Utrecht head into this 1st leg of the Europa Conference League play-offs having managed to win just one of their last 10 matches overall in the Dutch top flight, that being a 1-0 home win over NEC Nijmegen but the hosts have also drawn five and lost four of the other games.
The bigger picture on home soil though suggests Utrecht are tough to beat at their Stadion Galgenwaard as the hosts have lost just three of their last 20 matches there, and includes keeping five clean sheets as well.
Vitesse Preview – Can Vitesse find form at right time?
Vitesse have struggled for consistency in the Eredivisie for some time now as the visitors have managed to claim just four victories out of their last 15 matches overall, only two of which were gained on the road with wins at Go Ahead Eagles and Fortuna Sittard, both of whom finished in the lower half of the division.
Indeed, these two wins have been Vitesse’s only successes on the road in recent times and within their last seven outings on their travels which also include losses at Twente, AZ and Willem II, while also keeping just one clean sheet in the process.
