Prediction: 1-2
Ajax
Sunday’s football game between Breda and Ajax will bring down the curtain on the Eredivisie round 2. Breda experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-1 loss to Groningen and, as a result, they are seen as underdogs in their first home game of the process. To make things even worse for the newcomers, important defender Enes Mahmutovic is out of contention through suspension.
The Amsterdammers, on the other hand, made a promising start to the season, with the team producing fine performances in all competitions. As Ajax have defeated Breda in each of their last four meetings in the Dutch top flight, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Dutch powerhouse. Brian Brobbey is pushing for his first start of the season, while winger Steven Bergwijn returns to the starting XI after missing the opener through suspension.
Highlighted Player (Steven Berghuis):
Born in Apeldoorn, Netherlands on December 19, 1991, Steven Berghuis is a Dutch winger who plays for Ajax in the Eredivisie. Berghuis played for the likes of Vitesse/AGOVV, WSV Apeldoorn, and Go Ahead Eagles during his youth career before joining Twente in 2009.
The 183-cm-tall footballer continued playing for the Reds at senior level. After ending his loan spell with VVV-Venlo, Steven Berghuis joined AZ Alkmaar in the summer of 2012, and three years later signed a deal with the Premier League club Watford. After making no more than nine appearances in the English top flight, Berghuis moved to Feyenoord in August 2016, and he has been playing De club aan de Maas ever since.
His main position is right winger, but he is capable of producing fine displays as both left winger and attacking midfielder as well. He made his Netherlands debut on May 27, 2016 in a 1-1 draw with the Republic of Ireland.
