Utrecht is going through a tough time after losing their last three matches, but all three defeats came with the minimal score of 1:0. This shows that the team remains competitive and does not easily give up, even though the results are still not in their favor. At home, they have already shown that they have the strength to win, and historically, they often find a way to impose their pace against this opponent.
Problems for HeerenveenThe guests have only one victory since the start of the season and are in the lower half of the standings. Although they managed to win spectacularly against NEC Nijmegen in the last round, their previous four-match winless streak revealed their defensive weaknesses. Away from home, the situation does not look any better.
Prediction: Victory for UtrechtBoth teams are not in optimal form, but Utrecht seems to be a bit more organized and stable, especially in front of their own fans. Heerenveen struggles seriously in their away matches, and their weak defense could prove decisive. Therefore, I expect the hosts to break their negative streak and celebrate a victory.
