Match Preview
Ajax Amsterdam are preparing to face NEC Nijmegen in their upcoming Eredivisie clash. Despite their recent Europa League playoff exit to Union Berlin, interim manager John Heitinga has overseen an impressive run of form for Ajax, winning all seven of their recent domestic matches. This has kept them in the hunt for two titles, the KNVB Cup and the Eredivisie championship, with Feyenoord currently leading the way by just three points.
Ajax, who are on a five-game winning streak in the Eredivisie, will be looking to continue their fine form against Nijmegen. Two of the five victories in the league have been hard-fought, coming from behind to win against RKC Waalwijk and Vitesse.
With the league leaders Feyenoord to face in their next fixture, Ajax cannot afford to slip up against NEC. Moreover, the Amsterdam-based team has not lost any of their previous 41 league encounters against NEC Nijmegen at home, winning 35 of those matches and drawing the remaining six.
They will be counting on their top Eredivisie goal scorer, Brian Brobbey, who has 11 goals and two assists from 22 matches this season, to lead them to victory. For Nijmegen, Pedro Marques will be the player to watch. The striker has scored eight goals in all competitions, with half of those coming in the current calendar year.
NEC Nijmegen will be hoping to cause an upset against the in-form Ajax, as they sit in 9th place in the league table with 30 points after 23 matches. They have not lost any of their previous four games and managed to hold Ajax to a 1-1 draw in their previous encounter this season.
However, their recent away record against Ajax is poor, having lost their last two visits to the Johan Cruijff Arena by a margin of five goals. Additionally, in their last five away matches, they have been the underdogs and have not managed to win any of them.
NEC Nijmegen will be aware that a win could propel them to eighth place, which would secure a spot in the European playoffs if Spakenburg does not win the KNVB Cup. But to reach that target, they will need to be at their very best if they are to take anything from the match against Ajax.
For the Amsterdam-based team, securing maximum points against NEC and Heerenveen in their next two matches is essential if they are to keep the pressure on Feyenoord in the race for the Eredivisie title. Their hard work to win the full three points from NEC can be watched online via live streaming broadcasts.
