The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 5-4-2 (win-draw-loss) from eleven matches.

SC Cambuur form and stats

With 2 Eredivisie wins, 0 draws and 13 defeats from their home games, SC Cambuur are certainly not brimming with confidence. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for SC Cambuur with their six defeats in a row. Not since the Go Ahead Eagles game, 61 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Paulissen was the last player to score a league goal for SC Cambuur and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as SC Cambuur haven't scored in 292 minutes.

The regulars are hoping that Cambuur will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the game against FC Volendam (placed 14th). Sylla, defender, was given a rating of 7.42/10 in that game, top of the team. Sylla hit three key passes and won 1 of 2 duels.

Before that game, the home loss against Feyenoord with the scoreline 0-3.

Goal party? Nobody knows what will happen in this one, but we do know that 10 of the 12 latest league games with this side has seen three goals or more.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for SC Cambuur here at Cambuurstadion in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (10 from 15 games). It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.

FC Utrecht form and stats

The visitors are W6-D4-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Eredivisie.

FC Utrecht lost away at Feyenoord (1-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. That loss was their first after three consecutive league games winning points. It's a bit troubling for Utrecht that their goalie Barkas made six saves in the Feyenoord match, but still were unable to stop a loss. Attacker Boussaid got a player rating of 7.02 in the game. "Man of the match" Boussaid hit one key pass.

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus FC Twente.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, FC Utrecht are regular goalscorers on their travels. The FC Utrecht manager Silberbauer has some worries about the defense as 32 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

It's not the first time these teams get together this campaign, as the fixture list show this recent game: FC Utrecht - Cambuur 0-0. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - three - four (SC Cambuur wins - draws - FC Utrecht wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
