Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Jong Utrecht in 11th and Jong Ajax in 13th place.
- Jong Utrecht have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Jong Ajax has the most matches over the total-line (11) in Eerste Divisie
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Jong Utrecht form and stats
4 victories, 0 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Jong Utrecht have to build on here at Sportcomplex Zoudenbalch in the Eerste Divisie.
Happy days for Utrecht in their previous game, a Eerste Divisie match away at MVV Maastricht (placed 17th) that ended with a 2-0 victory. Ahead of that match, Utrecht won a home game hosting FC Den Bosch (3-1).
The Utrecht fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 10 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 17 goals have been conceded.
Jong Ajax form and stats
3-2-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Jong Ajax in their Eerste Divisie matches away.
There were no winners in Jong's previous match, a Eerste Divisie home game that ended 2-2 vs Helmond Sport (placed 14th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against FC Oss wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
Jong are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 17 times in 9 away games so far. Jong's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 17 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
