Ajax doesn't have the season they expected. With only four games until the end of the season, Ajax are 3rd on the table, so their Champions League appearance for the next season is up in the air. Ajax lost the last two matches. In the previous game, they lost after penalties in the cup against PSV. Ajax were a better side most of the game, but PSV defended well, so penalties eventually decided the winner.

In the previous game, they won 3-0 at home against RKC Waalwijk. The home side had 59% ball possession and 16 shots on the goal, so it is no wonder they secured another win.
