Ajax, Recent FormAjax will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-0 home win against FC Utrecht. Their share of possession in that meeting was 60%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to FC Utrecht, who had 6 shots on goal with 2 on target.
John van 't Schip will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 11 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 10 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games; however, they have scored in 11 of their 12 played at Johan Cruijff Arena this season.
They have been performing well at Johan Cruijff Arena recently and are unbeaten in their last 9 home games.
When home matches come round at Johan Cruijff Arena, Brian Brobbey will feel confident of adding more goals to his tally of 7 goals in Ajax's last 6 home league matches.
Fortuna Sittard, Recent FormIn their previous league fixture, Fortuna Sittard managed a remarkable 5-2 home win against Excelsior. In that game they recorded 48 % of the possession, with 17 attempts on goal, 8 on target. Their opponents found the target on 2 of their 5 shots on goal.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 11, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 11 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Fortuna Sittard, Kaj Sierhuis will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
Ajax have scored in each of their last 9 games at home in the league against Fortunezen. Fortuna have failed score a goal in 4 of their last 5 league meetings with Ajax. Fortuna have struggled to break down the de Godenzonen defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings. In their last 3 away league games against de Godenzonen, Fortuna have conceded a total of 14 goals and that's an average of 4.67 per game.
Historically the visitors have floundered in this fixture, losing the last 8 times in a row that they have travelled to play Ajax in the league.
Ajax manager John van 't Schip has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Gastón Ávila (Knee), Steven Bergwijn (Muscle), Mika Godts (Hip), Diant Ramaj (Meniscus) and Josip Šutalo (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Alessio Da Cruz (Foot) and Loreintz Rosier (Unknown) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Danny Buijs will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
