Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We make over 1.5 goals our best tip on this fixture, meaning that the teams will score at least two goals between them during the standard 90 mins. Both Ajax and Groningen's current form stats suggest goals are to be expected, while their head-to-head (H2H) record adds further weight to the argument. The bookies make it their favoured prediction in this market too, available at 1.15.

There’s absolutely nothing to pick between these sides, and our predictive algorithm gives Ajax and Groningen an equal chance of claiming victory. The home win and the away win are both at 50% probability.
