Prediction

  • Go Ahead Eagles aim to prevent Ajax from achieving an eighth consecutive victory in Eredivisie action at Johan Cruijff ArenA this Sunday. Ajax currently sits two points ahead of PSV at the top of the table and recently won their last league match 4-0 at home against Heracles, extending their winning streak to seven.
  • In their most recent league match, Go Ahead Eagles secured a 1-0 victory at home against Sparta Rotterdam, placing them seventh in the standings with 35 points. Over 22 matches, they have scored 40 goals while conceding 34.
  • The last Eredivisie encounter between the two teams, which took place in September at De Adelaarshorst, ended in a 1-1 draw. Enric Llansana scored the only goal for Go Ahead Eagles in the 64th minute, while Davy Klaassen equalized for Ajax in the 69th minute.
  • Ajax has had the upper hand in recent meetings, remaining unbeaten in their last five Eredivisie matches against Go Ahead. Go Ahead Eagles are seeking their first league victory against Ajax since February 2022. During this span, Ajax has outscored Go Ahead Eagles six goals to five.
  • This season, Ajax has benefited from key contributions in front of goal from Oliver Edvardsen, Klaassen, and Wout Weghorst. Edvardsen is the team's leading scorer with nine goals, followed closely by Klaassen and Weghorst, each with seven goals.
  • At home, Ajax remains unbeaten in Eredivisie matches this season, recording 10 wins and one draw from their 11 games played at their stadium. In contrast, Go Ahead Eagles have managed three wins, two draws, and five losses in away games this season.
