Fortuna Sittard - FC Utrecht predictions

The 3.76 odds on a home win result mark the hosts as clear underdogs. Things are fairly lopsided, in fact, so backing such an outcome would be quite a longshot.

If everything goes according to plan and FC Utrecht put their best foot forward we expect to see an away win in this match.

Fortuna Sittard’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Feyenoord as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 2:0 loss for Fortuna Sittard.

The visitors are coming off from quite a shocking result in the last round of the Eredivisie. Despite being overwhelming favourites to claim three points on home soil against FC Groningen, they initially struggled to break in front during the first 45 minutes before going down in flames with a 0:1 defeat.

Fortuna Sittard have managed to bag 6 goals in the last three showdowns, and the supporters at Fortuna Sittard Stadion are expecting a lot of action this time around.

FC Utrecht don’t seem to have any issues in the goal-scoring department. Their most recent records show they’ve score more than 5 goals over the last 3 matches, so they’re on a bit of a positive trend already.

Keeping their table position at 9th as they’ve done so far will be difficult for Fortuna Sittard. They’re likely to lose this game, and the season has barely just started.

FC Utrecht need to earn another 1 point to get into a Europa League qualifying spot. The table positions are not quite established yet, though, because the season is still in its early stages. This upcoming match at Fortuna Sittard is a good opportunity.

Looking back at the head-to-head stats for this matchup, Fortuna Sittard are more than able to beat the odds and come out on top. They did so last season, even securing a considerable goal lead. FC Utrecht are still the favourites, though, and the betting odds are firmly in their favour.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1 odds offered at 1xbet.
