The Netherlands comes to a standstill for Vitesse Arnhem home games

"Vitesse Arnhem have scored 18 times across their last five Eredivisie and playoff home games"

Back Over 3.5 Goals @ 2.506/4 in Vitesse Arnhem v FC Utrecht

Vitesse Arnhem's home games have been very high scoring this year and Tobias Gourlay's hoping for more goals in tonight's Dutch Europa League playoff final

In Spain last night, a 90th-minute penalty gave Deportivo La Coruna the three points they desperately needed against Mallorca. But, as the only goal of the game, it was too little, too late for us.

Today we've moved to the Netherlands, where Vitesse Arnhem and FC Utrecht will play the second leg of the Dutch Europa League playoff final. Locked together at 1-1 after the first leg, the pair look well capable of putting on a show tonight.

Vitesse Arnhem have scored 18 times across their last five Eredivisie and playoff home games. That run has included matches against the teams that finished the regular season in second, fourth and eighth. In the calendar year 2019, they have scored 31 times in 10 league and playoff appearances at the GelreDome. In all 10 of those matches, they also conceded at least once themselves. Nine of the 10 games delivered Over 3.5 Goals in total.

FC Utrecht finished the regular season in sixth. Since they last visited Vitesse Arnhem in mid November, eight of their 12 Eredivisie and playoff away games have delivered Over 3.5 Goals. That record too suggests Over 3.5 Goals is generously priced for tonight's clash.
