Goal Statistics

Groningen's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday afternoon, not least because FC Utrecht have conceded in each of their last 7 Eredivisie outings. A PG of 1.6 for D. Lukkien's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been an issue for FC Utrecht of late. It has been 8 Eredivisie games since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.4 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Sunday afternoon against Groningen.
