Prediction

  • Ajax secured a 2-0 victory over PEC Zwolle at home in their last league match, extending their unbeaten streak to 10 games (with 8 wins and 2 draws). This result puts Ajax in third place with 29 points from 12 matches, seven points behind first-placed PSV.
  • NEC currently sits in ninth place with 16 points after 13 matches. They suffered a 2-1 defeat at home against Utrecht in their last Eredivisie match.
  • In their most recent Eredivisie encounter, the teams played to a 2-2 draw at Johan Cruijff ArenA. Ajax's Brian Brobbey and Carlos Forbs scored, while NEC's Rober netted in the 95th minute, and a crucial own goal by Jorrel Hato of Ajax contributed to the draw.
  • Ajax has been dominant in recent matches against NEC, remaining unbeaten in the last 10 Eredivisie meetings (with 7 wins and 3 draws). NEC is still searching for their first league win against Ajax since August 2015. During this unbeaten streak, Ajax has outscored NEC 26 goals to 7.
  • Davy Klaassen has been Ajax's leading attacking threat, scoring six goals, including two match-opening goals. He is currently tied for fourth in the league's scoring charts for the 2024/2025 season.
  • For NEC, Koki Ogawa has led the team with five goals, three of which were the decisive first goals of the matches.
  • At home in Goffertstadion, NEC has recorded three wins, one draw, and three losses this season in seven Eredivisie matches. Meanwhile, Ajax has earned 11 points from 18 available in away matches this season (with 3 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss) and is currently on a five-match unbeaten streak away from home (with 3 wins and 2 draws). Their last away defeat occurred on August 18 against NAC Breda.
