Match preview: Go Ahead vs Ajax

Go Ahead and Ajax will clash at Adelaarshorst in the second round of the Eredivisie. Historical matchups at this venue reveal a stalemate: in their last four encounters, there have been two draws and one win for each club. The last face-off here was on 21‑09‑2024, ending in a 1-1 draw, with goals from Enric Llansana (64’) for Go Ahead and Davy Klaassen (69’) for Ajax. It’s vital to consider how each team performs at home versus away, as Go Ahead has shown different results in both scenarios.

Team analysis: GO AHEAD

Entering this second round after a 2-2 draw against Fortuna Sittard, the home team typically performs better at their ground. In their last thirty matches, they have secured three wins, seven draws, and five losses away, compared to ten wins, three draws, and two losses at home. Go Ahead has achieved seven victories, two draws, and one defeat in their last ten home fixtures across all competitions. While their defence has been permeable, conceding in eight of their last ten games, their attack has managed to score in eight out of those ten. Notably, there has been a trend of high-scoring encounters, with 13 of their last 18 matches ending with over 2.5 goals. Among the 22 goals conceded at home, eight were during the last fifteen minutes of matches (31’–45′).

Go Ahead Eagles commenced their campaign in the Dutch Championship with an acceptable draw away from home. Now, facing one of the country’s most illustrious clubs in front of their own supporters, they must leverage their intensity and organisation to balance the play and create scoring opportunities. A solid defence will be crucial to withstand pressure and maintain chances for a surprise.

Team analysis: AJAX

Ajax arrives for this second round following a 2-0 victory over Telstar. This side is relatively unaffected by the home advantage, which is evident from their performances both at home and away; over the last thirty matches, they have recorded eight wins, two draws, and five defeats as visitors, netting 19 goals while conceding 19. At home, they’ve secured eight wins, four draws, and three losses, scoring 32 while conceding 21. In their last ten clashes across all competitions, Ajax has five wins, one draw, and four losses, though defensive stability has been a concern as they have conceded in eight of those matches. However, they have regularly found the net, scoring in nine of their last ten games. Away matches see a tendency for goals, with 24 of their last 27 games featuring over 1.5 goals. Of their last 15 encounters, they have allowed the first goal six times but managed to equalise on three occasions.

Ajax’s strong start to the championship sets them on a path to compete for the top positions from the outset. With a talented squad capable of exerting dominance away from home, Ajax is expected to adopt an aggressive approach, maintaining possession and crafting numerous scoring chances. They will aim to exploit their technical prowess to break through the adversary’s defence and secure another three points, ensuring they confirm their status as favourites in this fixture.
