Jong Utrecht vs Jong AZ Prediction & Betting Tips (12 February)

Jong AZ bring some phenomenal form into this fixture, having secured 13 victories in their last 18 Eerste Divisie matches, including five in a row recently. The picture has been a very different one as far as Jong Utrecht are concerned of late, with a run of seven defeats in nine games doing little to boost their survival chances in what threatens to be a hard-fought battle.

Jong Utrecht could hardly be described as the great entertainers at the moment, as 16 of their last 18 top-flight home games, including each of the most recent 11, have served up two goals or fewer. It has been a virtually identical story as far as Jong AZ are concerned on their travels, with 16 of their previous 18 matches at this level also producing under 2.5 goals.

Over the course of their last 19 Eerste Divisie matches, Jong AZ have kept an impressive tally of 14 clean sheets, so finding a way through against Jong AZ can prove difficult. Given that just three of the most recent 13 top-flight fixtures involving Jong Utrecht have served up goals at both ends of the pitch, it is hard to see much of a deviation from the script.
