Utrecht's record over the same length of sample reads very differently. Just 7 wins from 20, with 10 defeats, including a 5-0 loss to Feyenoord and a 1-6 hammering by PSV. For an Eredivisie club, that's a rocky patch.

Utrecht's underlying form makes them look more vulnerable than their division would suggest.

A cup tie with an obvious level gap

Even with Utrecht's dip in form, they're still a top-flight side up against opponents two divisions below them, so there's a clear gap in quality on paper. But Kozakken Boys' own cup form hasn't been smooth either, having lost 1-5 to Groesbeek in an earlier KNVB Beker round this season.

Both sides have shown they can concede goals in bunches. Utrecht have shipped plenty in defeats to Feyenoord and PSV, while Kozakken Boys have had games go 5-1 or 6-1 either way. That points to a match that could easily open up rather than stay tight.
