The Ajax manager E. ten Hag attacks this game with the team placed 2nd so far. In the visitors dressing room SC Heerenveen and their manager J. Jansen are in 9th place before this match.

Ajax form and stats

Ajax have only played one Eredivisie game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 1 win, 0 draws and 0 defeats from 1 matches. After failing to beat PSV here at Johan Cruijff Arena, Ajax has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with four wins in a row.

A good away victory last time out for Ajax, who won 4-1 against Sparta Rotterdam (placed 6th). Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against APOEL.

Everyone expects Ajax to win this match. We have checked our database for matches where they have been as big a favourite and found 24 games: 21 home wins, 3 draws and 0 defeats. Ajax have won with at least two goals margin 17 times in similar situations.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Lille are coming to town in three days.

At Johan Cruijff Arena, Ajax has the goal stats of 5-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.

SC Heerenveen form and stats

Things could have gone better for SC Heerenveen in their Eredivisie away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

SC Heerenveen delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Fortuna Sittard (placed 17th) in their previous match; a Eredivisie game. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs FC Twente.

4 goals so far away for SC Heerenveen, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.
