Twente vs Utrecht Prediction and Betting Tips | February 18th 2024

Twente will face Utrecht at De Grolsch Veste on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Eredivisie campaign.

The home side have performed well in the league this season and are targeting a return to the continental stage. They beat Excelsior 3-0 in their last match with Daan Rots opening the scoring after just two minutes before Ricky van Wolfswinkel scored a first-half brace to seal the points.

Twente sit third in the league standings with 44 points from 21 games. They are five points behind second-placed Feyenoord and will look to reduce that gap.

Utrecht have found good form of late after a disastrous start to their season and are now pushing for the qualification playoff spots. They thrashed Fortuna Sittard 4-0 in their last match with three different players getting on the scoresheet including USA international Taylor Booth, who scored a brace.

The visitors sit mid-table in ninth place with 26 points and will look to continue their good run of results on Sunday.

Utrecht have also won their last two games and are undefeated in the league since last October. They are, however, winless in their last three games on the road and could see defeat this weekend.
