Utrecht Expected to Score Against Twente

Twente occupy fourth place after winning four of their last five league games and concede just 0.8 goals a game at home. Utrecht have scored in seven of their eight matches so far this season with an average of 1.5 goals on the road. The visitors also share the scoreline in seven of those eight outings. Twente must cope without goalkeeper Unnerstall which leaves their defence more open than usual. Utrecht have claimed four wins in the last ten head-to-head encounters at this venue. Their recent away form includes two victories despite overall inconsistency. The match could turn on whether Utrecht can exploit the space behind Twente’s back line.
