Ajax
- De Godenzonen currently sit seventh in the Eredivisie 2026/2027 table with seven points from four matches, while visitors Willem II are 16th with just one point from four games.
- Míchel's Ajax have been playing possession-first soccer from a 4-3-3 formation, where they play a high, aggressive pressing style, then counter-press quickly in the transitional phase to suffocate opponents high up the field.
Willem II
- Willem II have endured a mixed to poor run of form coming into this game with one win, one draw and three defeats across their last five matches.
- Willem II have also failed to pick up a point in their only away Eredivisie 2026/2027 game, conceding four goals in the process, which is a worry coming into this clash with Ajax, who will see this as a must-win.
Head-to-Head
Willem II Tilburg have failed to win either of the last two head-to-head meetings, losing 2-1 in Eredivisie 2024/2025, and have no win in their last trip to Amsterdam.
Key Players
- Tolu Arokodare has been the main man for Ajax in the Eredivisie 2026/2027, notching two in four, but he's also scored five of Ajax's last 16 goals across their previous five.
- Devin Haen leads Willem II's scoring with two in four in the Eredivisie, and has been their main threat recently.
