NEC Nijmegen vs Utrecht Prediction

Nijmegen are set to host Utrecht at Goffertstadion for their upcoming league fixture. Nijmegen enter the contest following a string of mixed performances. They sit 13th in the table after a 4-0 defeat to PSV in their previous league match.

Their opponents, Utrecht, experienced a streak of subpar outcomes prior to their recent win. Having defeated Heracles 3-1 in their recent league encounter, they are now ranked 15th in the standings.

Who will win the match between Nijmegen vs Utrecht?

We are counting on Nijmegen to pull off a win here. With a valiant effort against Excelsior and a win against RKC Waalwijk, they did display strong performances in their two home matches this season.

Utrecht, on the other hand, has a poor record despite their recent victory. They have lost four of their five league matches this season.

How many goals can be expected?

We expect goals in this match. Nijmegen has scored goals at a fine rate at home in recent weeks, with both of their two league matches ending with over 2.5 goals. Also, both of Utrecht’s last two matches have ended with over 2.5 goals.

In addition, the last h2h meetings between these two have had over 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.

Will Both teams score in the match?

Neither of these two teams has had a solid defensive record in recent weeks. The hosts have conceded five goals in their last two matches. While the visitors have also failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their five league matches this season.

Thus, the chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.

The Verdict

Nijmegen has turned up strong performances in both of their home matches this season, most recently with an amazing victory. They also have a solid recent record at this venue against Utrecht. Furthermore, Utrecht has underperformed in the majority of their recent matches.

Therefore, Nijmegen to win or draw at 1.50 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.

For the second tip, over 2.5 goals and BTTS at 1.83 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
