Ajax, Recent FormIn their last match Ajax enforced their superiority over Cambuur with a 5-0 away win.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 4 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. It's clear that with only 1 clean sheet from the last 6 matches at home, John Heitinga will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late. Few teams have managed to keep de Godenzonen away from their goal, having scored in all but 1 of their games this season.
There will be mixed feelings from de Godenzonen, although undefeated in their last 3 league games at home, 3 of these games ended in a draw.
On an individual basis, Brian Brobbey will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 10 goals in Ajax's 20 league games this season.
RKC Waalwijk, Recent FormRKC Waalwijk had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 0-0 draw against Excelsior.
Although they have only shipped 3 goals in their past 6 matches, they have taken a relatively modest return of points from those games, primarily due to an indifferent return at the other end with 6 goals netted in those 6 matches. They are proving tough to beat, keeping 4 clean sheets in their last 6 games. After failing to get on the scoresheet in 5 away games out of 10 this season, Joseph Oosting will be looking for a bit more consistency from his forwards.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 6 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Dario Van den Buijs will be hoping to create problems for Ajax in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for RKC Waalwijk.
RKC Waalwijk will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Ajax, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 1-4 defeat.
Ajax will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against RKC, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 8 meetings between the two. In their recent meetings RKC have struggled to keep de Godenzonen at bay, having conceded 16 goals in their last 5 games.
Undefeated in their last 29 league encounters against RKC, Ajax have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning the last 8 times in a row.
Dušan Tadić will be looking forward to this meeting with RKC, the Ajax player has found the net 3 times in the previous 3 league matches against them at Johan Cruijff Arena.
With only Florian Grillitsch (Unknown) and Ahmetcan Kaplan (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, John Heitinga will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the RKC manager Joseph Oosting ahead of this clash, with Mika Biereth (Unknown) missing out, which gives Oosting a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
