Den Bosch vs Jong Utrecht prediction 20.04.2026 | Eerste Divisie

Den Bosch have another solid season. They are a mid-table team with five points fewer than the last team in the promotion playoff zone, Roda. However, Den Bosch have one game fewer than the team above them, so they still have some chances to qualify for the playoffs. Den Bosch played well recently, with four games without a defeat. The good run ended on Friday night, when Ulrich Landvreugd's team lost 4-2 on the road against Oss. The guests led 2-0, but their poor defense allowed four goals in the second half, leaving them empty-handed. 

Den Bosch played well at the home stadium lately, where they are undefeated in the last five matches. Also, Den Bosch's big strength in 's-Hertogenbosch is their defense, as they conceded only five goals in the last five home games. 

Den Bosch should have a full squad available for Monday's tie. 

The 2025/26 season is one of the best for Jong Utrecht since they joined the Eerste Divisie ten years ago. They are a mid-table team, and that shouldn't change significantly in the final two matches of the season. However, Jong Utrecht struggled in the last few months with only three victories in the previous 14 matches. In the most recent outing, they won 3-0 at home against Eindhoven FC. Although the guests probably deserved to score, Jong Utrecht were the better team throughout the game, and anything other than their victory would be unfair. 

Jong Utrecht are terrible away from home. They collected only three goals in the last seven road games. Also, Jong Utrecht scored only five goals in those seven matches. 

Jong Utrecht also have almost a full squad for the upcoming game. Jaygo van Ommeren is the only one who should skip the trip to 's-Hertogenbosch.
