Waalwijk vs Ajax Prediction: Ajax is absolute favorite

Ajax is far from the European football elite this season and is not ranked well in the Champions League after two debacles against Napoli, but in the domestic championship, despite a small crisis, it is still ahead of the competition. After a new mess in Europe, Ajax played victoriously in front of Excelsior's goal and tore it to pieces - 7:1 in the last round. The host is also in good form and is having a really well season so far. Only Feyenoord won on this stadium against Waalwijk with 1:0, and it tells us that the host is really tough opponent.

Waalwijk is currently in 7th position with 3 wins, 5 draws and 2 defeats. At home he has 2 wins, 2 draws and a defeat. This team is one of the most positive surprises in Eredivisie this season. Waalwijk lost in the Cup match last week by a team from lower rank and it seems that he is going to focus only on league and finishing in the top half of the table.

Ajax is 1st on the table with 8 wins, a draw and a defeat. In the league Ajax is untouchable and in the last round he showed how brutal he can be against underdogs. The bad form in the Champions league spoils the mood in the team, but the title race is on and there isn’t much time for suffering.

Waalwijk is tougher opponent than Excelsior and will try to make life difficult to the defending champion. However, Ajax can’t lose points now in the league as the competitors for the title are right behind him and every mistake can be very expensive this season. When two teams from the upper half of the table are meeting, goals are quaranteed, and the champion will once again show why he is on the throne, despite the good form of the opponent.
