Over 2.5 Goals Looks the Value Bet

There’s plenty of juice when it comes to backing the 1.65 about Over 2.5 on the Total Goals market. Utrecht and Heracles should be able to find the net at least three times combined and we’re optimistic of a payout.

Utrecht Have Won 8 Out of 10 on the H2H

FC Utrecht won last time out by a 4-1 scoreline. It was on their travels against Sparta Rotterdam at Sparta Stadion Het Kasteel. Utrecht had four shots on target and 50% possession, with Victor Jensen, Miguel Rodriguez, Paxten Aaronson and Mike van der Hoorn scoring one goal apiece.

Heracles have lost back-to-back on their travels. In their previous game, it was a 2-0 home victory over NAC Breda at Asito Stadion. Erwin van de Looi's side recorded 41% possession and totalled three shots on goal, while Brian De Keersmaecker netted twice.

Utrecht have won the last two encounters against Heracles. They triumphed 3-1 at Erve Asito and then 1-0 at Stadion Galgenwaard. We’ve seen eight Utrecht wins in the past 10 meetings between the teams.
