All eyes will be on Stadion Galgenwaard when Utrecht and Ajax go head to head in a highly-anticipated Eredivisie game. Utrecht are eager to put an end to their three-game losing run and they are surely capable of matching the fallen Dutch powerhouse in front of home fans. Keep in mind, though, that important defender Nick Viergever is sidelined through suspension following his sending-off in the 1-0 loss to FC Volendam.
Ajax, meanwhile, are desperate to put an end to their three-game losing run in the Dutch top flight and seeing that they will adopt an attack-oriented approach in Sunday’s matinee as well, both teamst to score betting option should be considered. Both Steven Berghuis and Benjamin Tahirovic are out of contention with injuries, while Silvano Vos misses out through suspension. In their last meeting in the Eredivisie Ajax recorded a 3-1 win over Utrecht.
