FC Utrecht, Recent FormThe 4-2 away defeat to Feyenoord will not have sat easily with the FC Utrecht squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They came away from that fixture with 33% of the possession and clocked up 3 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Feyenoord managed 27 attempts on goal, with 11 on target.
Manager Ron Jans will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but playing at home, they have conceded a goal in 10 of their 13 games this season.
They have been performing well at Stadion Galgenwaard recently and are unbeaten in their last 10 home games.
When home matches come round at Stadion Galgenwaard, Taylor Booth will feel confident of adding more goals to his tally of 5 goals in FC Utrecht's last 6 home league matches.
PEC Zwolle, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 3-1 home defeat by Ajax will have left the PEC Zwolle squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Ajax who had 9 attempts and 5 on target.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 4 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 17 goals in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 7 games.
