FC Utrecht, Recent FormFC Utrecht had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 0-0 draw against Vitesse. They achieved 60% possession in that match and had 20 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Vitesse's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Ron Jans will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 8 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 5 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their the last 9 games at Stadion Galgenwaard.
They've not been beaten at Stadion Galgenwaard in 5 league games, but with just a single point from each of their last 4 games there, the Utreg fans will be beginning to wonder how long they'll have to wait to see their team win at home again.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for FC Utrecht, Victor Jensen will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
PSV, Recent FormPSV head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 3-1 home win against Excelsior in their last league encounter. Their share of possession in that meeting was 69%, while racking up 27 shots along the way, 15 of which were on target. Excelsior had 8 shots on goal with 3 on target.
With 18 goals scored from their past 6 matches and just 2 conceded, their manager Peter Bosz will be more than happy with his team's form of late. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 33 games in a row, and they've kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games away from home.
The continued consistency shown by Rood-witten is exceptional, they're unbeaten in their last 33 league games and are currently on an impressive winning streak of 18 games in a row.
On an individual basis, Luuk de Jong is showing great form in front of goal having scored 6 goals in PSV's last 6 league games
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 2-0 win for PSV.
The Utrecht defence has struggled against Rood-witten in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 7 games. In the previous 5 matches between these sides, PSV have shown they know their way around the Utreg defence having scored 15 times against them in those 5 matches.
PSV have certainly shown themselves to be resilient opponents against Utrecht in the league, having gone unbeaten against them in their last 7 meetings.
PSV man Luuk de Jong will be out for more of the same in front of goal in this match against Utrecht, having bagged 3 goals in the last 3 encounters between these sides at Stadion Galgenwaard.
Utrecht manager Ron Jans has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Marouan Azarkan (Head), Anthony Descotte (Unknown), Zakaria Labyad (Knock) and Isac Lidberg (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Peter Bosz has a number of injury concerns in his PSV squad to contend with: Armel Bella-Kotchap (Unknown), Luuk de Jong (Muscle), Mauro Júnior (Groin), Hirving Lozano (Hip) and Yorbe Vertessen (Muscle)
