Utrecht return to action under pressure, having collected just 0.25 points per game at home and failing to win any of their four league matches at Stadion Galgenwaard. Therefore, we predict that they will play out a 2-2 draw with Sparta Rotterdam on Matchday 20. Despite the poor results, Utrecht remain dangerous in attack – scoring in 100% of their recent home games and being involved in matches averaging 2.75 goals per home fixture. Defensive concerns, however, continue to damage their prospects: they concede 1.75 goals per home match and hold 0% clean sheets at home. David Min remains sidelined, but no new injury issues have surfaced.
Sparta Rotterdam arrive with momentum after a thrilling 4-3 derby win over Feyenoord, extending their away form to three straight victories. On the road, The Rotterdammers score 2.2 goals per game and average 1.80 points per match, showing a strong counter-attacking threat. Their expected goals (1.83) and expected goals against (1.82) suggest an open style that often leads to high-scoring contests. There are no new injury worries for the visitors.
Given Utrecht’s shaky defence and Sparta’s confident away displays, we believe that punters worldwide can find value in betting on Over 2.5 goals. Additionally, BTTS and Over 3.5 goals market seem tempting.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 25 January 2026 at 15:45.
