Jong Utrecht is a reserve team that plays in the Eerste Divisie with the sole purpose of providing experience to young players who are being prepared for the main squad of Utrecht that competes in the Eredivisie and other elite competitions. Even so, it is shameful for the club that it has not managed to win in the last 9 rounds valid for the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025 (3 draws and 6 defeats recorded in the period). Specifically away from home, Jong Utrecht has lost the most recent 4 games. As a result, the team is the worst away team in the league (15% success rate after winning 8 points in 17 matches). Jong Utrecht has the second worst attack (27 goals scored in total, that is, an average of 0.7 goals scored per round) and also the second worst defense in the competition (71 goals conceded and a rate of more than 2 goals conceded per match). The away performance is even worse (13 goals scored and 40 goals conceded, that is, an average of 0.7 goals scored and 2.3 goals conceded per away performance). Jong Utrecht has the second worst possession in the league (45%) and has become the second worst finisher (an average of 10.8 shots) and also the second team that has the fewest shots on goal (3.9 shots on goal per round). Defensively, it has the worst clean sheet record (it has kept only 3 clean sheets). Coach Ivar van Dinteren is expected to change the previous starting lineup, based on the 4-1-4-1 tactical scheme, as wingers Mees Akkerman and Miliano Jonathans are available again after serving suspensions. Right-back Ricksson van Hees and Moroccan midfielder Rafik El Arguioui are injured. Jonathans is expected to start as he is the standout player in the squad (having scored 11 goals and provided 4 assists in 20 appearances). Kevin Gadellaa is also expected to remain as the starting goalkeeper as Tom de Graaff is the second-best goalkeeper in the league (averaging 2.2 goals conceded per appearance as he has conceded 44 goals in 20 matches).

Confirmed Lineup: Tom Gerard de Graaff, Massien Ghaddari, Neal Roëll Viereck, Wessel Kooy, Nazjir Held, Sil van der Wegen, Gibson Yah, Ivar Jenner, Lynden Edhart, Georgios Charalampoglou, Mees Akkerman.
Coach: I. van Dinteren.
