Match Preview
Fred Grim has really stabilized the backline lately. Ajax boasts the best defense in the competition, allowing just zero point eighty two goals per game at home. This foundation has allowed players like Mika Godts to thrive, with the young star averaging 0.55 goals per 90 minutes.
Wout Weghorst remains a massive presence in the penalty area for the hosts. He currently averages 0.47 goals per 90 minutes and will likely lead the line today. With no major injuries, Ajax can name a very strong starting eleven to maintain their nine game unbeaten streak.
Youri Baas has also been a surprise source of goals from the defensive line this year. He has managed five goals while playing almost every minute. The tactical flexibility of this side makes them very hard to break down at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam.
Danny Buijs knows his team must be better defensively to stand a chance today. While Sittard has scored in six straight games, they are conceding far too many. Kaj Sierhuis is their main threat, scoring eight goals so far with a 0.6 average per 90.
The visitors are missing Ramazan Bayram and Daley Sinkgraven due to knee injuries. This might force some changes in the midfield where Philip Brittijn usually operates. Brittijn has been solid, but the lack of depth could be a major issue against a high pressing Ajax team.
Even with these absences, Mohammad Ihattaren provides a creative spark that can hurt any team. Sittard plays an open style, and the stats suggest we will see another high scoring affair. Experts believe the Discover Eredivisie Predictions point toward plenty of shots and action.
