Willem II vs Ajax

Even though Ajax's hopes of qualifying for Europe were dashed last month when they lost to Eintracht Frankfurt, they are presently nine points ahead of PSV in the rankings and the overwhelming favorite to win the domestic title.

With the win, Francesco Farioli's club has now won 12 of their past 13 games, dating back to the beginning of December when they suffered a 2-1 away loss to Utah.

Notably, the visitors have been spotless away from home lately, scoring two goals or more in seven of their past ten games while maintaining clean sheets in each of their last six away games.

On Sunday Ajax will advance toward winning the Eredivisie title by playing their match at Koning Willem II Stadion against Willem II.

Forty-six points separate these two teams in Eredivisie play because Ajax sits in top position after 28 matches while Willem II holds the bottom place.

In 2025 Willem II began their return to the highest division with promise yet survived only because of their strong initial performances since they endured a dramatic performance decrease that now threatens their future Eerste Divisie membership.

After eleven league matches Superkruiken secured two points and now occupy the last spot with five points above the teams in bottom position.

The result of 3-1 in Heerenveen against Peter Maes's team marked their sixth consecutive defeat while being the seventh game where the rivals scored multiple goals.

The team faces dual problems since they scored only six goals throughout their past 10 games yet conceded one fewer goal than their previous three first-tier matchups.

The hosts continue to experience defeat at Koning Willem II Stadion with each of their last four home matches and have given up eight goals, their most recent victory took place on December 22 against NEC.

De Godenzonen nearly felt doubt after falling behind NAC Breda early in their match but managed to win 3-1 by producing goals from Kenneth Taylor and Steven Berghuis and Jorthy Mokio.
