SC Heerenveen, Recent FormA 3-3 draw and a point gained against Fortuna Sittard in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent result for SC Heerenveen last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 59%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target, in contrast to Fortuna Sittard, who had 13 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Despite scoring 8 goals in their last 6 matches, they have failed to pick up many points, mainly because their back line have shipped 14 goals in that same period. So far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 16 of their 20 games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.
Goalscorer Luuk Brouwers will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for SC Heerenveen.
Ajax, Recent FormA point gained from their 1-1 draw against PSV in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Ajax. In that game they had 49% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to PSV who had 18 attempts and 5 on target.
Their boss John van 't Schip has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 16 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 9 goals conceded across those matches. They've scored in 18 of their 20 games this season, but of the 10 games they have played away from home, their defence has conceded at least one goal on 9 occasions.
They've had a good run of form away from home recently, with 4 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 5 games.
In front of goal, Brian Brobbey has shown an impressive run of form over the last 6 league matches, managing to find the back of the net no less than 8 times in that run of games.
After a good 4-1 win for Ajax in this pair's last league encounter, SC Heerenveen will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
de Godenzonen will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Heerenveen, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 29 meetings between the two. In their recent meetings De Superfriezen have struggled to keep Ajax at bay, having conceded 20 goals in their last 5 games.
Undefeated in their last 14 league encounters against Heerenveen at Abe Lenstra Stadion, Ajax have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning on their last 9 visits in a row.
Steven Bergwijn has scored in each of Ajax's last 0 league games against Heerenveen.
There is only really one injury concern for the Heerenveen manager Kees van Wonderen ahead of this clash, with Ion Nicolăescu (Muscle) missing out, which gives van Wonderen a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Ajax manager John van 't Schip with Chuba Akpom (Illness), Mika Godts (Hip), Sivert Mannsverk (Leg), Diant Ramaj (Meniscus), Josip Šutalo (Unknown) and Branco van den Boomen (Knee) all unavailable for selection, and Gastón Ávila (Knee) out for the rest of the season.
