FC Utrecht - Vitesse betting tips and odds

The online bookies marked FC Utrecht as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put Vitesse winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

The odds are stacked heavily against Vitesse here, and we can’t see them winning this match. FC Utrecht are heavily favoured by most betting predictions – so much so that an away bet is priced at around 3.75.

FC Utrecht won with a single-point lead in their previous showdown against RKC Waalwijk . Some fans were expecting more, seeing how FC Utrecht were considered favourites, but it’s hard to argue with 1:2 results in an away game, despite the favourable betting odds.

Vitesse are bursting with confidence after their latest Eredivisie home victory. Despite being tagged clear underdogs in the matchup against AZ Alkmaar, they were ahead at both half time and the final whistle.

The hosts have been careful not to let their goalscoring stats slip. They’ve scored more than 5 times during the last 3 matches, indicating consistent offensive results.

Our confidence that Vitesse will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

Vitesse are in place 4th in the standings going into round 26. This implies a decent performance, though it’s obvious their sights are set on the top positions. With FC Utrecht in their way, though, getting there won’t be easy – especially not with the limited time available.

With a loss to Vitesse on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Eredivisie match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.78, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
