Utrecht vs Venlo Prediction & Betting tips
FC Utrecht made a good impression in recent weeks. The team is therefore the big favorite in the home match against VVV Venlo
FC Utrecht:
FC Utrecht lost the first points of the new season last week, although that was not a major disappointment given the level of the opponent. On a visit to Feyenoord, which clearly did not have the top form yet, it ended in a 1-1 draw. With a little more cleverness for the goal of the opponent, perhaps more could have been possible for Domsteps. Utrecht now stands at seven points after three matches and is therefore a shared leader.
Purchase Adrian Dalmau is almost usable again, after a very difficult preparation, in which the Spaniard did not complete the required training hours. John van den Brom can use him well, because the interpretation of the pointed position at Utrecht is so far not ideal. Justin Lonwijk has talent, but is not yet stable enough to be the regular striker of Utrecht. Due to an injury, the youngster is not available on Sunday.
VVV Venlo:
Just like two weeks ago, VVV Venlo also lost 4-1 last week. In the home match against Ajax, it was primarily a matter of defending and stopping for the Limburgers. For a long time it actually went pretty well, only after the 0-1 was the resistance of VVV broken. The team from Amsterdam ran out to a big lead. Evert Linthorst made sure that the home fans could cheer one more time (1-4).
This week, VVV attracted new players. Lee Cattermole came over from Sunderland. Coach Robert Maaskant indicated that the midfielder is fit, but he cannot play a whole match yet. Captain Danny Post is expected to make his return to the starting line-up on Sunday. This is good news for VVV. Post is not a miracle player, but it is a stable force that was important to the team in previous seasons.
