Ajax Amsterdam Reserves
- Ajax Amsterdam Reserves are unbeaten in two after a 2-2 draw at Roda JC and a 0-0 draw at FC Emmen.
- Ajax Amsterdam Reserves have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five Eerste Divisie 2025/2026 games and their form is unlikely to improve when they host a Willem II Tilburg side that are enjoying a mini-revival on Monday.
Willem II Tilburg
- Willem II Tilburg are unbeaten in three, following back-to-back wins against FC Eindhoven (0-2) and VVV Venlo (2-1) and a 0-0 home draw against ADO Den Haag.
- Although the Ajax Amsterdam Reserves’ home record isn’t too terrible (Won two, DRAWN five, lost five from 12) they are coming up against a team that is in superior shape and 20 points ahead in the table.
- Willem II are a progressive side with players who can play attractive soccer but they have been pragmatic since Stegeman took over at the beginning of July 2025, learning to adapt and change things in-game to get results.
- There are plenty of positives to take from the fact that Willem II have won five and drawn three of their 12 league away games.
Key Players
Nick Doodeman has been a real force for Willem II, creating 13 goals from 23 league appearances and should supply Devin Haen , the club’s 12 -goal top scorer, with opportunities in this fixture.
Betting Insights
- Ajax have conceded 20 goals in 12 home matches, while Willem II have been breached 21 times in 12 away games, so both teams’ defensive issues should be on show for an Over 2.5 goals selection at 1.45.
- Willem II are 1.9 favorites to win the match, however, while Ajax Amsterdam Reserves are listed at 3.45.
Prediction
Their recent record is far superior and they should have enough to edge a victory, although there are bound to be a few goals in this match-up of a creative and physical Willem II side against a talented, youthful Ajax Amsterdam Reserves outfit.
