Ajax vs Excelsior Predictions

• Ajax scored 18 times across the last four H2H meetings for a 4.5 per-match average.
• Brian Brobbey has scored four goals in his nine Eredivisie appearances this season.
• Excelsior conceded 11 times across their last four away games.

Finding value away from the main markets

With Ajax priced up at 1/20 for the win here, taking them in that or even the handicaps simply has no betting appeal. That especially rings true when considering that Ajax have won just one of their last six games, a run which has seen many call for the sacking of manager Alfred Schreuder.

This home game against Excelsior should provide a perfect opportunity for Ajax fans to take their mind off of their faltering Champions League campaign and the fact that they’ve dropped five of the last nine available points in the Eredivisie.

Ajax have scored 18 times across the last four H2H encounters and 13 of those came in the last two meetings. In the likely event that he features here, he will likely be amongst the scorers in his first appearance against Excelsior should Ajax start racking up the goals.

Back Brian Brobbey anytime

All four of Brian Brobbey’s league goals this season came in commanding Ajax victories, so we feel this is the perfect opportunity for Ajax to bounce back to form in emphatic fashion.

Although an odds-on price for a goalscorer isn’t ideal, it represents much greater value than any of the win, goals or even the handicap markets in this encounter. For smaller stakes, we’re going for a 5-1 Ajax rout.
