FC Utrecht - NAC Breda predictions

It’s easy to point out FC Utrecht as the clear favourites, but we wouldn’t call this match completely one-sided. The hosts are definitely more likely to win between the two, but a tie game is another possibility. An away win would be quite a surprise, but we’ve seen bigger upsets.

This one has Home Win written all over it. The hosts are expected to grab a firm hold of the proceedings and NAC Breda will be left with slim pickings in this match.

FC Utrecht are coming off from a 2:2 draw in an away game at PSV . Betting predictions for that game were heavily in their opponents’ favour, though, so the fact that they pulled off a draw both at half time and as the final result is a success, relatively speaking.

NAC Breda have a lot to be proud of in their last performance – even if it did end in a lukewarm 0:0. They went toe-to-toe with very tough opposition (Feyenoord), which is commendable.

FC Utrecht have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Eredivisie matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 fixtures, NAC Breda's backline has much to be wished for

The hosts are doing well enough so far and are in a Champions League qualifying spot. The season is only past its halfway point, however, so they’ll need to work hard on staying there. Another 3 points here is definitely not a longshot, though.

FC Utrecht clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with NAC Breda, but it was a rather narrow victory.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Saturday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

We recommend taking up Pncl’s offer for a Draw/Home result in the Half Time/Full Time market, priced at 4.42. It’s fairly good for value, but you might want to steer clear if you’re looking for high-probability wagers.
