Match Preview
| Extending their winless run to three games last time out, Utrecht must win in order to maintain their push for a European play-off spot. Encouragingly for them, they are unbeaten in five here at the Galgenwaard (W1, D4), keeping three clean sheets in the process. |
| Usually quick starters here, the hosts have scored a first-half goal in two-thirds of their home league games this season. In turn, they have trailed at the break just once here, leading nine times. Notably though, only two teams have dropped more points from half-time leads at home than Utrecht. |
| Despite essentially securing their top-flight status after victory last time out (2-1 vs Breda), it could be a long afternoon for Sittard if the story of the season is anything to go by. The visitors have picked up just 23.53% (eight) of their points away from home, which is more than only rock-bottom Breda (five). |
| Compounding matters further, Sittard have the worst defensive record of any Eredivisie side away from home. An alarming 69.01% (49) of their total conceded goals have come on the road, with 60.22% (30) of those goals coming after half-time. |
| Players to watch: Sander van de Streek has featured with a goal in both of the home games in which Utrecht have scored in 2019. |
| For the visitors, either Lazaros Lamprou (one goal, two assists) or Andrija Novakovich (three goals) have been involved in five of Sittard’s last six away goals in all competitions. |
| Stat attack: Utrecht boss Dick Advocaat is unbeaten in seven of his eight touchline encounters with Sittard (W6, D1, L1). |
| This season, no Eredivisie side has lost more away league games after a losing first half than Sittard, who have done so eight times. |
| Sittard are conceding (on average) 3.27 goals per Eredivisie away match – a league high. |
