Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Ajax
Match Time & Date:
24/09/2023
14:30
Prediction: 1-2
Feyenoord
Sparkles will be flying when Ajax and Feyenoord square off against each other in De Klassieker on Matchday 6. The Amsterdammers made a slow start to the season, with the team sitting in 12th position in the standings and, no doubt, head coach Maurice Steijn feels pressure ahead of the Eredivisie derby. Both Ahmetcan Kaplan and Geronimo Rulli are major doubts, but Steijn can count on key players for Sunday’s showdown.
The Rotterdammers, on the other hand, look unstoppable at the moment, with the team rolling over the likes of Almere City (6-1), Utrecht (5-1), and Heerenveen (6-1) in the national championship, while beating Celtic 2-0 in their Champions League opener. Feyenoord seem to be more of a team than Ajax and we predict that the title holders are going to give fans yet another reason to celebrate this weekend. To make things even better for the visiting side, important attacker Santiago Gimenez is back from the Champions League ban.
