Receiving guests at their own home is relaxed and good for RKC Waalwijk, but Ajax are fully motivated and capable to go home as winners. What will the score be?
- RKC Waalwijk haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
- Ajax have the most scored goals (37) in Eredivisie
Both sides have had enough days rest since their previous match. Let's agree to expect an energetic match!
This ground has artifical turf, unlike Ajax's home arena. The last eight games by the guests on artifical turf have ended with 7 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses.
RKC Waalwijk form and stats
2-1-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Eredivisie numbers at home for RKC Waalwijk so far this season.
An away draw last time out for RKC Waalwijk, facing FC Groningen in a game that ended 1-1. The attacking player Michiel Kramer was named "man of the match" for Waalwijk with the rating of 7.62/10. Kramer scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
Preceding that match was the home game against SC Cambuur that was lost 0-1.The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Ajax to win. Let's see if RKC Waalwijk are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: four games found revealing zero RKC Waalwijk wins, zero draws and four defeats.
Waalwijk have scored 5 league goals here from 6 matches, not a lot. Waalwijk have conceded 6 in these home matches.
Ajax form and stats
3 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses. That’s the product of Ajax, who have the most scored goals (37) in Eredivisie, playing as the away team in the Eredivisie this season.
Ajax are looking to quickly end their 180 minutes long goal drought in the Eredivisie. The Ajax goalkeeper Remko Pasveer is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 373 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Ajax delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Go Ahead Eagles (placed 10th) in their previous match; a Eredivisie game. Dušan Tadić got a match rating of 8.15 in that game, top player of the team. Tadić hit seven key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.
Prior to that result Ajax won their away game at Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League. The scoreline was 3-1.Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Ajax given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed twelve matches with ten wins as expected, two draws and zero surprise home wins. The favourites won six of these games by at least two goals.
Ajax have another game away from home in just three nights, a Champions League match vs Besiktas. A gruelling diary for the guests!
The Ajax manager E. ten Hag has got the team scoring on the road, with 10 away goals in 5 league matches. Ajax are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 1 away goal have been conceded so far.
