Preview, Team News, and Provisional Lineups
Go Ahead Eagles
The home team is enjoying its time in the Eredivisie this season contemplating what's coming next in their remarkable season. The word ‘remarkable' might sound funny for a team that has won only four times, but the way the Eagles are playing this season is certainly just that. They are a club with one of the youngest squads in the First Division, and with a budget that virtually doesn't allow any spending. Most of the players they are bringing in are free transfers or loanees. Also, there is their youth system that is providing occasional results. The Eagles are undefeated in their last ten Eredivisie matches which is an amazing accomplishment for a team coached by Rene Hake who was hired in July of last year. The home team only has one injury worry for the match, Philippe Rommens is out.
Provisional lineup: De Lange, Deijl, Nauber, Idzes, Kuipers, Tekie, Llansana, Willumsson, Adekanye, Edvardsen, Lidberg.
Utrecht
If the Eagles have a good season, what can we say about Utrecht? Even better. The last time they tasted defeat was in the middle of October last year, and yes, it was an ugly loss, 6-1 to PSV. But since then, they have come along nicely and are maintaining their presence in a league position that would allow them to play in European competition next season. They have restarted their season with a 1-1 draw against leaders Feyenoord and will be eager to continue their good run of form. They have a good league record against Go Ahead Eagles, and the last time they lost it was almost ten years ago. Predictions for the season were optimistic for Utrecht, they wanted to fight for European placement, and thus far are looking good in that aspect. They have some injury issues for this match, Mimoun Mahi, Django Warmerdam, Ramon Hendriks, Bart Ramselaar, and Tommy St. Jago are potentially out.
Provisional lineup: Barkas, van der Maarel, Sagnan, van der Hoorn, Klaiber, Bozdogan, Toornstra, van de Streek, Boussaid, Dost, Booth.
Starting lineups

Go Ahead Eagles
FC Utrecht
Player to Watch: Bas Dost
The experienced striker returned to the Eredivisie last summer after six years away and has immediately provided a spark for Utrecht scoring six goals this season. Plenty of people predict he might score again, and certainly, he will be someone that the Go Ahead Eagles defense will keep a close eye on.
