Heerenveen will look to recover from a 2-0 defeat to NAC Breda when they take on Ajax on the last day of the regular season. However, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 away win as Ajax are eager to secure a top-four finish. Heerenveen's form remains strong overall with 1.90 points per game and a perfect home record in recent sample (4 straight wins). De Superfriezen average 1.80 goals scored per game and concede 1.40, with BTTS landing in 60% of matches. At home, they are particularly dangerous, scoring 2.75 per game and allowing just 0.75. No new injury concerns gives them a stable XI.
Ajax, meanwhile, travel needing a win to overtake NEC into fourth place. The Amsterdammers suffered a 2-1 loss to Utrecht at the weekend, but still average 1.70 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. Their away form is steadier (1.60 PPG), with 40% win rate and 60% clean sheets on the road. Wout Weghorst offers a strong bench impact option after scoring as a substitute against Utrecht, while Zinchenko and Wijndal remain out.
Ajax have stronger H2H dominance (25 wins in 31) and given their higher motivation, Away Win seems like a value bet. Additionally, BTTS and Over 2.5 goals markets are worth considering (77% H2H Over 2.5).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 17 May 2026 at 13:30.
