Jong Ajax (home)
- Jong Ajax’s record at home this season (1 win in 4 home matches) suggests they may struggle against the league’s 9th-placed team, and this reflects in the Ajax Amsterdam Reserves vs De Graafschap betting tips available for this fixture.
- They’re a youthful side that can really play football when they’re at their fluid best, but there are times when their aggressive pressing and high-line build-up play have been exposed.
- Kayden Wolff is the main man for Jong Ajax in the Eerste Divisie 2025/2026 with 4 goals in 8 matches, but that’s not a great statistic for a team that is 19th in the standings with just five points from nine games.
- They’ve lost their last four and failed to win any of their last five, so they enter this clash as the clear underdogs.
De Graafschap (away)
- De Graafschap have a solid record on their travels in the Eerste Divisie 2025/2026 (W1, D1, L1) in comparison to Jong Ajax’s poor one at the Amsterdam Arena (W1, L3).
- They are a physical and structured team that like to play direct, creating their own attacking patterns that are less open to interpretation.
- They’re a clinical side that often get their goals from set-piece situations and wide areas, and often press in situational patterns.
- Dijkhuizen’s side have a talisman in Reuven Niemeijer, who has scored 5 goals in 8 games so far, 50% of Graafschap’s total in the last 5 rounds (W2, D2, L1).
