Prediction: 2-2
Feyenoord
All eyes will be on Stadion Galgenwaard when Utrecht and Feyenoord face each other in a highly-anticipated Eredivisie game. Utrecht were unstoppable in the national championship before the World Cup, with the team winning each of their last four league fixtures, but they face a difficult task against the league leaders. The good news for the hosts is that several footballers recovered from their injuries during the World Cup break.
Meanwhile, the Rotterdammers are the surprising leaders after 14 rounds, but they surely want their title dream to be continued. Given Feyenoord’s attacking potential, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. As for the visiting side, both Quinten Timber and Gernot Trauner should miss out with injuries, but there are no suspended players ahead of Sunday’s clash.
