RKC Waalwijk

Form: LLLLL

RKC Waalwijk avoided the relegation play-offs by goal difference last season to retain their place in the top flight this season. However, this season has been their most dismal campaign to date, as they are currently rooted at the bottom of the table and have yet to register any points after six games.

Henk Fraser's team has lost their last six games in the league while conceding 17 goals in the process. In their most recent match, they suffered a 2-1 home defeat against Sparta Rotterdam, and this came after a convincing 3-0 beating at the hands of newly promoted outfit Willem ll.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Houwen; Van Gelderen, Van Den Buijs, Lelieveld, Meijers; Van De Loo, Roemeratoe, Weidmann; Cleonise, Margaret, Lokesa

Ajax Amsterdam

Form: DWLW

Following a fifth-place finish last season, which was their lowest finish in over two decades, Ajax Amsterdam have made a mixed start to the current season. They currently occupy 10th place, albeit with two games in hand, which, if won, could see them jump to fourth place. 

After a lackluster 1-1 draw against Go Ahead Eagles in the Eredivisie, Francesco Farioli's men regained their confidence, making the most of their continental exploits with a decisive 4-0 home victory over Turkish powerhouse Besiktas in the Europa League.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3
