Ajax aim to recover from a massive 6-0 KNVB Beker Cup loss to AZ Alkmaar, and given Go Ahead Eagles’ difficulties on the road, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Amsterdammers failed to impress in the midweek defeat and, as a result, they will be fully focused on the Eredivisie in the remainder of the season. The fact that Ajax have been scoring 2.00 goals per home game of late definitely goes in favour of our betting prediction. Both Youri Regeer and Anton Gaaei remain in the recovery room, but the hosts are capable of filing the gaps.
Go Ahead Eagles, on the other hand, are tough to beat at home, but their away record is anything but good, with the team recording only one win on the road this term. Their expected goals against of 2.12 on the road is yet another reason why away win should not be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team following the Dutch Cup triumph over Heracles.
As Go Ahead Eagles are not regarded as good travellers, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win. Additionally, Over 1.5 (78% H2H) and Over 2.5 goals (56%) markets are worth considering.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Saturday 17 January 2026 at 15:30.
