Go Ahead Eagles - FC Utrecht betting tips and odds

Go Ahead Eagles will have to fight an uphill battle to win this match. They are the underdogs of the matchup – though FC Utrecht don’t have a huge advantage. Still, with the 2.88 odds on a home win, things may get a bit dicey.

FC Utrecht will need to bring their top form if they want 3 points from this matchup – and they do. Go Ahead Eagles are not easy pickings, although the visitors are widely seen as close favourites.

Go Ahead Eagles fans are feeling elated after their team’s convincing 0:2 victory at Fortuna Sittard in the previous round. The team went into the match as visiting underdogs, yet managed to grab an early lead and turn it into a solid 0:2 win.

FC Utrecht supporters are likely happy with the 1:1 draw the team recorded in their previous Eredivisie match against Feyenoord. The 2.00 betting odds were expecting a completely one-sided affair, but FC Utrecht and their home-field advantage took the lead in the first half.

Records show that the previous game between Go Ahead Eagles and FC Utrecht was a draw. That game was played in the previous season, though, so most are hoping to see something more conclusive this time around. Although Go Ahead Eagles are on their home turf, FC Utrecht are the favourites, so both teams will be highly motivated to avoid a stalemate.

FC Utrecht’s position as favourites is hard to question, but their roster has been battered by a string of injuries. They’ll have to make do without Tommy St Jago, Arthur Zagre, Django Warmerdam, Mimoun Mahi, Ramon Hendriks, Bart Ramselaar, which will make things considerably more difficult than they would have been otherwise.

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 1.73 odds offered at Unibet.
