Ajax vs Sparta Rotterdam Predictions

• No team has had more Eredivisie wins with four or more goals than Ajax have this season.
• Sparta Rotterdam have not lost in ten Eredivisie games.
• Six of Ajax’s last seven Eredivisie home games have ended with both sides scoring.

An exciting return to the Eredivisie for Ajax

Under the relatively new leadership of Johnny Heitinga, the Amsterdammers are playing at a much higher standard since Alfred Schreuder’s sacking, a statement backed up by their incredible 12-goal haul across the previous three rounds.

Ajax are perhaps hampered by their Thursday night Europa League clash when holding German title chasers Union Berlin to a draw here, although a return to Eredivisie action often spells goals as no side won more games with over 3.5 total goals than Ajax this season.

Although the gap may have extended by kick-off, Ajax have a chance to keep pace with the title race with victory here as they entered the round just three points behind the leaders Feyenoord. With five straight wins in home H2Hs though, they may be expectant of claiming all three points once again.

Sparta can leave a mark

With the odds typically stacked in Ajax’s favour, it often pays to avoid the win-draw-win markets in games like this. That is especially applicable when taking into account Sparta’s incredible ten-game unbeaten run of Eredivisie games heading into this one.

That should realistically come crashing down here, but we’re not risking it and as such, we’re backing over 3.5 goals in the game. To complete our picks, we’re going for an exciting 3-1 victory for the hosts in the correct score market.
