Prediction

  • Hosts Ajax are currently second with 32 points, seven points behind first-placed PSV after 13 matches. Ajax won their last Eredivisie match 2-1 at Goffertstadion against NEC, extending their unbeaten streak to 11 matches.
  • Utrecht suffered a setback in their last league match, losing 5-2 to PSV at Stadion Galgenwaard. This ended their three-match winning streak.
  • In their previous Eredivisie meeting, Ajax triumphed 2-0 at Johan Cruijff ArenA last season. Brian Brobbey scored first for Ajax in the 39th minute, followed by a goal from Kenneth Taylor.
  • Looking at the 2024/2025 season statistics, Ajax have been led by Davy Klaassen and Wout Weghorst. Klaassen is the club's leading scorer with six goals, which ties him for the fourth highest in the league this season, with two of those being crucial first goals of the match. Weghorst is not far behind, having netted five times.
  • Paxten Aaronson, Yoann Cathline, and Noah Ohio have been Utrecht's main attacking threats this season. They have scored four, three, and three goals, respectively.
  • At Johan Cruijff ArenA this season, Ajax have secured all 18 points available from six Eredivisie home matches, scoring 15 goals and conceding only three. They boast a 20-match home unbeaten streak that dates back to November 2023, when they faced Volendam.
  • Meanwhile, Utrecht remains unbeaten in league away matches this season, with five wins and one draw. They will look to extend their nine-match away unbeaten streak, having last lost on the road on March 31st against Feyenoord.
