FC Utrecht travel to Heracles on Friday evening and hope to close the gap on league leaders PSV Eindhoven to three points in order to continue fighting for the Eredivisie title.

The away side are unbeaten in their last two games, having secured an impressive 2-1 win over Feyenoord and a 0-0 draw with AZ last weekend. They have won seven out of a possible eight away games in the Eredivisie this season and are unbeatable on away soil so far.

The hosts have fared slightly better in recent weeks, winning two games in a row in both the cup and the league. However, they are still stuck in the relegation battle before they regain some more momentum.

Heracles vs FC Utrecht Betting Tips: FC Utrecht to Win

As Eredivisie league standings suggest, FC Utrecht are in a much better position than Heracles, indicating their superiority performance wise this season. The away side are also unbeaten in the last three games (2W 1D) and have lost just once in the last eight matches in all competitions.

Heracles, even though they have won two Eredivisie games in a row, are not on the same level as Heracles this season, as they are currently just four points above the relegation zone. Perhaps it will not be easy for FC Utrecht, but we expect them to win, as they still have not lost a single game away from home this season.
