Groningen host Utrecht in what shapes up as a tight Eredivisie clash, with 1-0 our predicted outcome. The Green and White Army are recovering from a 2-1 loss to PSV, showing mixed form overall with 1.20 points per game and scoring 1.20 goals per match. Home performances have been inconsistent (1.00 PPG) but their attack is capable, averaging 1.40 goals at home. Groningen have kept clean sheets in 40% of recent home games, while BTTS occurred in 60%, suggesting both sides may find the net.
Utrecht arrive with major struggles, earning just 0.50 PPG overall, and scoring only 0.40 goals on the road. Forward Miguel Rodriguez is suspended, reducing their attacking threat further. Despite this, Utrecht have managed 80% BTTS in away fixtures, showing they can score even on the road. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
H2H stats favor Utrecht historically (17 wins in 32 matches), though recent clashes have often been close. 44% of past games went over 2.5 goals, indicating potential for a moderate-scoring match. Given Groningen's home advantage and Utrecht's poor form, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside Under 3.5 and Under 2.5 goals (likely tight, not high-scoring game).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Saturday 14 February 2026 at 20:00.
