Prediction: 2-1
Utrecht
Sparta Rotterdam will be aiming to extend their winning run to four games when they take on Utrecht in the Eredivisie round 33. Sparta are determined to book their place in the Conference League playoffs, and we are positive that they will adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Utrecht. You should bear in mind that the Rotterdammers are eyeing their fifth home win of the season.
Rene Hake’s troops have already secured a top-eight finish, meaning that the boss could opt to make changes to the starting XI. In the first half of the season Utrecht defeated Sparta Rotterdam thanks to Othman Boussaid’s goal, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge. All Akmum, Mahi, and Mamengi are likely to miss the game with injuries for the visiting team, while goalkeeper Tim Coremans should be the only absentee in the home side.
Highlighted Player (Aaron Meijers):
After spending his youth career at AVV Andijk and FC Volendam, Aaron Meijers continued playing for the Palingboeren at senior level. After scoring four goals in 124 league appearances for Volendam, the pacey left back joined fellow Dutch outfit RKC Waalwijk in 2010.
Aaaron Meijers quickly established himself as a first-team regular at RKC, but after playing 62 games in the league for the Yellow and Blues, he moved to ADO Den Haag in 2012. The Dutch footballer made his ADO Den Haag debut on August 12, 2012 in a 2-2 draw with Vitesse, and he has been playing for De Ooievaars ever since.
Aaaron Meijers was born in Delft, Netherlands on October 28, 1987. His main position is left-back, but he is capable of producing fine displays as central midfielder and left winger as well. His preferred foot is left, and he has a contract with ADO Den Haag until June 30, 2022.
Highlighted Team (Utrecht):
Established on July 1, 1970, Utrecht is a Dutch club that competes in the Eredivisie. The club was founded as a merger of VV DOS, USV Elinkwijk, and Velox, and it has to be noted that VV DOS did well to win the Eredivisie trophy back in 1958.
Utrecht, on the other hand, have yet to win the national championship, but they have lifted three KNVB Cup trophies (1984/85, 2002/03, 2003/04). Leo van Veen is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 153 goals. Speaking of the club’s colours, they were white and red shirts when playing at home, while blue is the dominant colour of their away jersey.
Due to the hooligan clashes, Utrecht have a rivalry with Dutch giants Ajax. The games between the two clubs have always been very tense on the field. Utrecht welcome their rivals at Stadion Galgenwaard, the venue which can hold up to 23,750 people. The stadium was opened back in May 1936.
