Best Tip: Ajax to win

A Eredivisie victory in front of their own fans for Johnny Heitinga's Ajax team win in the win / draw / win market is our prediction. Statistics suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should be too strong for their visitors. The odds from the bookies suggest the same, and when that happens you've got reason to feel confident. A Ajax win is the bet we'd suggest, even if a tight match is possible.
