Twente - FC Utrecht

Can FC Twente maintain their momentum as they welcome FC Utrecht to De Grolsch Veste for this matchday 9 Eredivisie encounter on 18 October 2026? The hosts look to leverage an expected starting XI featuring Wout Weghorst and Marko Pjaca in attack, supported by a midfield trio of Younes Taha, Daouda Weidmann, and Ramiz Zerrouki. Defensively, Robin Propper and his colleagues face a visiting side led by Vasilios Barkas in goal, with Dani de Wit and Yoann Cathline aiming to disrupt the home rhythm.

FC Twente arrive in strong form, highlighted by their recent 3-2 victory over PSV Eindhoven and a midweek Conference League win against Thun. In contrast, FC Utrecht have experienced a more volatile campaign, though they enter this fixture buoyed by a 3-1 win over Willem II. The visitors will be eager to replicate their 2-0 success at this venue from March 2026.
