Feyenoord just crushed their league opponent 7-0 in their latest match, following a defeat in the European cup where they conceded as many as five goals. This game is therefore one where the hosts want to confirm that their league form is genuinely solid, while FC Utrecht just returned to winning ways in their previous match after an early-season spell where their defence showed clear problems. Feyenoord score frequently and from a variety of sources in the league, but their defence is not as tight as it should be, especially in the match against strong opposition where they conceded five. As for FC Utrecht, they have some attacking threat, but their defence is so leaky that they have conceded goals in bunches over several consecutive matches. This away trip, then, they must focus on settling their defending first. If Feyenoord take the lead early, the game is likely to open up into a long exchange, because both sides have moments where they can score and concede within the same match. FC Utrecht's defence, which concedes in bunches, will be under even more pressure to open up and trade blows, which will push the game further toward one with plenty of goals.
