Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
----------------------------------------
Go Ahead Eagles host Ajax in Eredivisie’s second week, looking to capitalize on Ajax’s shaky win over Telstar. The home side aims to challenge last season’s runners-up with a stronger showing.
Team Analysis:
Go Ahead Eagles showed resilience in their Eredivisie opener, earning a late draw despite being down to 10 men. They now host Ajax, a team they've challenged in recent meetings, including two home draws in their last three encounters. Ajax remain unbeaten in six games against the Eagles but are still adjusting under coach Johnny Heitinga and looked unconvincing in their recent win over Telstar.
Player Situation:
Go Ahead Eagles will be without suspended Calvin Twigt and injured Soren Tengstedt, while Pim Saathof remains a doubt. With Jakob Breum still absent, Victor Edvardsen is expected to lead their attack. Ajax will rely on Wout Weghorst and Steven Berghuis for offensive impact, though they face several injury concerns, including Youri Regeer, Josip Sutalo, Branco van den Boomen, and Brian Brobbey.
Result Prediction:
Despite a history of draws between the teams, Ajax’s attacking strength and Weghorst’s form give them a slight edge to secure a narrow win at De Adelaarshorst.
Predicted Result: Go Ahead Eagles 1-2 Ajax.
