Telstar v Ajax Tips

Ajax has won its last three matches against Telstar. They have won three of their last four Eredivisie matches. They’re going to win this time.

Ajax's form away has been poor. They have struggled to find goals: in 8 away games they have won 2, drawn 5, and lost 1. The home team has won once at home and will look for a point against the away team in this round.

Telstar are coming off two consecutive wins: 1-0 against Breda in the league and 4-1 against Hoek in the KNVB Beker. Their last home league win was a spectacular 4-2 victory against Go Ahead Eagles. Telstar have suffered two defeats in their last seven away matches across all competitions, including a 2-1 league loss to Utrecht. Earlier this season, Telstar defeated PSV 2-0 away.

Over in this game is the play as above. Both sides in their last six have seen an average of 3 goals per game. Ajax are a little up and down this season, especially when playing away, so Telstar are good here to score at least a goal, and maybe even good for the win.

Telstar have had BTTS in eight of their nine Eredivisie home matches this season. Both teams have scored in each of Ajax’s eight league games away from home.

Ajax is technically dominant but defensively brittle away. Combined with Telstar's consistent home scoring and freezing conditions, expect a high-scoring exchange where Ajax's individual quality ultimately prevails.

Ajax come here after 4 wins and 3 losses (1-2, 1-2, 0-2) in their last 10 matches in the league, including 1 win and 1 loss in their last 3 away matches. Telstar come here after 2 wins (1-0, 4-1) in their last 2 matches in all domestic competitions. At these odds, I will try both teams to score and Telstar to win.
