Sparta and Ajax have been struggling recently, but both sides will try to get back to winning ways this week. The hosts have won just one of their last 5 Eredivisie home fixtures, while Ajax have lost the last two league away matches. We see the visitor’s favourites in this clash, but it seems too risky to play their straight victory. Therefore, we pick Ajax double chance.
Prediction: Ajax double chance
For our second prediction, we will pick “Both teams to score.”. Ajax have defensive problems. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their previous 15 away games. We expect that the same scenario will be repeated here too.
Betting Tip: BTTS – Yes
Sparta Rotterdam and Ajax will meet this Sunday in the Eredivisie Round 26 matchup.
The hosts again disappointed their fans last week, when they lost to Twente 1:2, extending their winless run to three matches (D1, L2).
With 30 points, Sparta sit in 11th place. They are still in the Top 8 race.
Ajax, on the other hand, became the last Dutch side to be knocked out of the European Cups.
They suffered a tough defeat against Aston Villa (0:4) in the UEFA Conference League round of 16 second leg.
In the league, Ajax sit in 5th place and theoretically can catch the top 3 place, which will let them play Champions League football next season.
Sparta: Olij; Warmerdam, Eerdhuijzen, Vriends, Van der Kust, de Guzman, Kitolano, Saito, Verschueren, Clement, Lauritsen
Ajax: Ramaj; Hato, Sutalo, Rensch, Gooijer, Tahirovic, Henderson, Banel, Taylor, Hlynsson, Brobbey
