Ajax, Recent FormAjax will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Feyenoord in which they suffered a 4-0 home defeat.
Maurice Steijn, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 13 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 8 goals scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have had a strong run of form at Johan Cruijff Arena recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
When it comes to home matches at Johan Cruijff Arena, Steven Bergwijn will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 5 league goals for Ajax in their last 6 home games.
AZ, Recent FormWhen AZ last played in the league they faced Fortuna Sittard and produced an outstanding 4-0 home win.
With 15 goals scored from their past 6 matches and just 2 conceded, their manager Pascal Jansen will be more than happy with his team's form of late. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 10 games in a row, and on the road, they are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
4 wins in a row away from home has to be viewed as a good run of form on the road, a spell that has also seen them unbeaten in their last 6 matches.
Vangelis Pavlidis will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 8 goals in the last 6 league games for AZ.
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
AZ have been unbeaten the last 4 times they have faced Ajax in the league.
AZ 0 - 2 AjaxAjax manager Maurice Steijn has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Ahmetcan Kaplan (Knee), Sivert Mannsverk (Leg), Diant Ramaj (Meniscus) and Gerónimo Rulli (Shoulder) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Mees de Wit (Foot) and Sem Westerveld (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Pascal Jansen will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
