The international break could be beneficial for Ajax.
It’s obvious the team and staff were mentally not ready for the start of the new season.
However, they have a good opportunity to bounce back against Utrecht, who are also struggling this season.

Prediction: Ajax to win
Both sides have serious attacking problems. We expect to see low-scoring match.
