There's been little loot from Jong Utrecht's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 15 away games in the Eerste Divisie. Jong Utrecht only have 4 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 1 draw. It's looking increasingly bleak for Jong Utrecht who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. FC Dordrecht was the last time a defeat was avoided. It's all red in the travel logs of Utrecht, having lost six matches in a row as the visiting team.

Utrecht play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Helmond Sport (placed 11th). Preceding that, the 1-6 home loss versus Jong PSV.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting De Graafschap in just three days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Utrecht have scored 20 goals in 15 league games away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. For Utrecht, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
