All square
We kick off our tips for this game by backing this game to end level. Both Utrecht and Vitesse had been on winless runs until last weekend when Utrecht won a humdinger with Fortuna Sittard and Vitesse edged Groningen out 1-0. With both sides having earned that morale boosting victory we believe they'd both take a point to build some form of a solid foundation of form. Given the last five matches between the two sides read as two Vitesse wins, two Utrecht wins and a draw there is really little to separate them.
Both teams will score
We've just cited how these two sides have been in similar form and another thing they have in common is with respect of how their games tend to play out. Utrecht and Vitesse see both teams score in their games more often than not and we think they will both score here. Utrecht have seen three of their last five games end with goals at both end whilst Vitesse have an identical record. Finally, you have the head to head record to factor in. Four of the last five clashes have seen both teams net. We see more of the same coming here.

A hard fought game coming up
It's been a mixed start to the season for both of these sides with plenty of scope to define how their seasons might progress. A couple of wins could see a European tilt unfold but a couple of losses and you could be looking over their shoulders. That will make this an interesting watch.
Utrecht's simmering start might have been something more had they not been fighting an injury crisis. They have four players definitely missing with Reda Akmum and Mike van der Hoorn amongst those ruled out. There is then question marks over Tommy St Jago and Sander van de Streek.
Utrecht Predicted lineup – Barkas, ter Avest, van der Maarel, Viergever, van der Kust, Sylla, Toornstra, Brouwers, Boussaid, Redan, Dost
Vitesse arrive in this game with a much cleaner bill of health than their hosts but they do still have a couple of absences to worry about. Markus Schubert and Mitchell Dijks are expected to miss out.
Vitesse Predicted lineup – Reiziger, Wittek, Arcus, Flamingo, Meulensteen, Cornelisse, Vidovic, Bero, Tronstad, Kozlowski, Bialek
