De Graafschap vs Jong Utrecht Prediction & Betting Tips (23 August)

Although they remain firmly in the mix to secure a playoff place, the wheels have started to come off for Jong Utrecht in recent months, with Jong Utrecht’s men securing just 12 points from their last 11 games. De Graafschap have won several games at home this season, securing 14 wins from 19 matches and scoring 46 goals in total.

Over the course of their most recent 14 away matches at the top table of the Eerste Divisie, Jong Utrecht have been involved in no fewer than 13 contests in which over 2.5 goals have been netted. For their part, De Graafschap have been similarly consistent on their own patch, with 12 of their previous 15 top-flight games also delivering a minimum of two successful strikes.

High-flying De Graafschap are one of the most exciting sides to watch in the Eerste Divisie at the moment, as they have both scored and conceded during the same 90 minutes in 14 of their previous 17 matches. Given that Jong Utrecht have done the same in seven of their last eight away games at this level, it would come as a bit of a surprise were either keeper to pitch a shutout.
