Vitesse take on the visitors Utrecht at “GelreDome” in the first-leg clash of the Eredivisie Play Offs for a right to perform in the UEFA Europa League next season. The match will be played in Arnhem on Tuesday, May 15th.
Vitesse looked decent enough in this season and fully deserved a place among top-six Eredivisie clubs. However, the side is still has to compete with Utrecht for a pass to the desirable UEFA Europa League qualification. On the first stage of the Play Offs Vitesse met with Den Haag and easily passed them though, having won both tackles with 5:2 and 2:1 scorelines. This season showed that the team from Arnhem was rather spectacular as 12 out of 15 latest encounters with its participation were finished in more than 2.5 goals combined. Vitesse have scored on average two goals per fight which is a good result.

In their turn, Utrecht also claim for a place in the Eurocups for the next season and have rather high chances to achieve it. The team conducted a great season, having settled on the fifth position in the elite division standings. In the first Play Offs round Utrecht had to work hard against Heerenveen, having lost 3:4 in the first-leg battle on the road, the side celebrated 2:1 victory at the home ground and promoted further due to the away goals rule. Like the upcoming rival, Utrecht are the bright team which clashes rarely end with minimal number of scored goals. At least three goals were combined in 12 out of 15 recent fights with the club’s participation. And just like the forthcoming hosts Utrecht scored on average two goals per game.
Without any doubts it is going to be a trilling match, however, I assume that it will not clarify the overall outcome of the battle. Taking into account that both rivals stick to attacking football, both of them will tend to solve their task in the first meeting and more than three goals were scored in the teams’ tackles on the first stage of the Play Offs, I believe that two sides which belong to the most spectacular ones in the Netherlands will bring a cracker in their head-to-head.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
