Jong Utrecht

WWLLLL 📉

Jong Utrecht will be looking for an improved result here after a 3-2 Eerste Divisie defeat last time out to Jong AZ.

The only scorer from Jong Utrecht was Jeredy Hilterman (31', 74'). Håkon Evjen (33'), Mohamed Taabouni (42') and Kenzo Goudmijn (78') scored for Jong AZ.

It has been all too rare in recent times that Jong Utrecht haven’t conceded. The reality is that Jong Utrecht have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, letting in 10 goals along the way. It will be interesting to see if that trend will end up being sustained here.

The only name on the scoresheet from SC Cambuur was Robert Mühren (50'). Naci Ünüvar (21') was the scorer for Jong Ajax.

A succession of steadfast performances by the SC Cambuur defenders has resulted in their ‘goals against’ tally amounting to 3 from their previous 6 outings combined. In that time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves amounts to 11.

Heading into this contest, SC Cambuur have not won against Jong Utrecht in games played away from home for the previous 2 league matches.

Cambuur boss Henk de Jong has to choose a team with limited availability. Mitchel Paulissen (Hamstring Injury) and Stanley Akoy (Knee Injury) miss out here. Doke Schmidt is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

✨ Prediction

In this game, Jong Utrecht will manage to breach the defence of this SC Cambuur outfit, although one goal likely won’t be as many as they will have scored against them.

Therefore, we think that it’s going to be a close game with a 1-2 winning margin for SC Cambuur when all is said and done. Could easily go either way, this.
