Our call

We looked at this match and did not find a call worth making. That can change as team news comes in: calls are looked at again every fifteen minutes until kick-off, so one can change or come down, and each closes when the match starts. the bet slip stays exactly as posted.

No call on FC Utrecht against Willem II Tilburg. There is a likely outcome here, but every bookmaker has it shorter than it deserves, so there is nothing to take.

Preview

Neither of these is in good shape underneath the results. FC Utrecht have faced six or more efforts on target in four of their last six games. They are getting opened up. On top of that, they have conceded 24 in their last seven from chances that would usually cost about 15. They have been punished for very little. Meanwhile, Willem II Tilburg have been out-created in five of their last seven games. The side that stops giving up the better chances first takes this one.
