Match Time & Date:

11:15
Prediction: 1-1
Utrecht
Zwolle and Utrecht will lock horns at MAC³PARK Stadion in the opening match of Sunday’s program in the Eredivisie round 3. The newcomers made a slow start to the season, with the team experiencing all sorts of difficulties at the back in back-to-back losses to Sparta Rotterdam (1-2) and Twente (1-3) and it is no wonder the bookies see them as underdogs in the round 3 clash. Both Ryan Thomas and Samir Lagsir are major doubts and the duo will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Utrecht, on the other hand, aim to recover from back-to-back defeats to PSV (0-2) and Heerenveen (0-2). As both sides are eager to record their first triumphs of the season, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. Both Anthony Descotte and Taylor Booth are out of contention with injuries, while fellow midfielder Zidane Iqbal faces race against the clock to be fit for Sunday’s clash.
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.
