Go Ahead Eagles vs. Ajax Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Go Ahead Eagles and Ajax, taking place on Sunday, 02 April 2023, at De Adelaarshorst in Deventer.
Go Ahead Eagles, Recent Form
Go Ahead Eagles will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-1 win in their away outing against FC Utrecht.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process. This season, their defensive frailties have certainly been apparent, having conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 25 league games.
They have had a good run of form at De Adelaarshorst recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 3 wins along the way.
Ajax, Recent Form
Failing to acquire any points in their 3-2 home defeat by Feyenoord will have left the Ajax squad feeling a little deflated.
Their boss John Heitinga has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 16 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 7 goals conceded across those matches. Whilst their long 25 game streak of scoring away from home continues, there's always a chance of a good away result. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
With 4 straight wins in a row away from home, they have started to put together a nice run of form, which has also seen them undefeated in their last 9 away games.
Mohammed Kudus will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Ajax.
Go Ahead Eagles vs. Ajax Head to head
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 1-1 draw.
With at least 1 goal in each of their last 4 away matches against Go Ahead in the league, de Godenzonen have built a decent scoring record that they will be keen to extend. When Ajax visit Trots aan de IJssel in the league, goals tend to happen, with 6 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2 goals per match.
In the league, Ajax have not won any of their last 3 meetings with Go Ahead.
With 2 goals notched up from the last 3 league meetings against Go Ahead at their home ground De Adelaarshorst, Ajax man Davy Klaassen will be looking for more of the same in this one.
