Ajax vs. Heracles Almelo Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Ajax and Heracles Almelo, taking place on Sunday, 24 August 2025, at Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam.
Ajax, Recent Form
Ajax were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 2-2 draw against Go Ahead Eagles. They achieved 52% possession in that match and had 23 strikes at goal, with 11 hitting the target, up against Go Ahead Eagles' tally of 8 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 9 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 8 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 games at Johan Cruijff Arena.
They've been performing well at Johan Cruijff Arena of late, with an unbeaten record of 5 games from 6, 3 of which were wins.
Wout Weghorst will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Ajax.
Heracles Almelo, Recent Form
Heracles Almelo will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with NEC Nijmegen in which they suffered a 4-1 home defeat. In that game they had 18% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to NEC Nijmegen who had 24 attempts and 11 on target.
With 6 goals scored in their last 6, they might have expected more points from that run of matches, but having conceded 19 goals along the way, things haven't been going their way points-wise. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
Heracles Almelo will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.
On an individual basis, Jizz Hornkamp will be looking to cause Ajax some problems having scored 2 goals in Heracles Almelo's last 6 away games in the league.
Ajax vs. Heracles Almelo Head to head
A defeat for Heracles Almelo in their last match against Ajax was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 4 goals.
Ajax have scored in each of their last 8 games at home in the league against Heraclieden. de Godenzonen have an impressive record of scoring goals against Heracles, with a tally of 19 goals against them in their previous 5 encounters.
Heracles will be determined to get something from this game having lost the last 5 times they've met Ajax in the league and not won this fixture for 8 games in a row.
