A low-scoring home win looks the best bet in Sunday's live Eredivisie clash.
Vitesse v Ajax - Sunday 13:30, Sky Sports Red Button
Vitesse suffered only their second defeat in 10 games as they were beaten 2-0 by Willem and so they’ve dropped down to 7th. Ajax, meanwhile, made it five wins on the bounce as they beat Sparta Rotterdam 2-0, though they remain five points off Feyenoord at the top of the table.
Vitesse have won three of their last four at home but they generally struggle when the top teams visit. They’ve lost all four of their home games against the top-three since the start of last season, scoring just once in these, though they kept the scoreline respectable as Ajax were the only team to score more than twice against them in a 3-1 victory in this fixture last term.
Ajax have won eight of their 11 road games this term, but only two of those wins have come against sides currently in the top-eight, 1-0 triumphs over Utrecht and Heerenveen. Indeed, since seven of their last 10 wins were 1-0 or 2-0 scores, we’re backing the Ajax win and Under 2.5 Goals at 4.0.
