Go Ahead Eagles

Form: WLWLL

Having accumulated six points from their first five games, the Go Ahead Eagles have made an average start to the current 2024-25 Eredivisie campaign, although it falls short of expectations for a team that not so long ago harbored ambitions of performing in the Europe Conference League. 

Following their elimination from the Europa League, losing 2-1 to Norway's Brann in the second qualifying round at the beginning of August, Paul Simonis' men were met with a string of unpleasant results, losing two consecutive matches by a 2-0 scoreline. However, they managed to bounce back, securing two wins from their last three games (L1), including a recent 2-1 win against Sparta Rotterdam on the road.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Plogmann; Adelgaard, Kramer, Nauber, Deijl; Linthorst, Llansana; Antman, Breum, Adekanye; Edvardsen

Ajax Amsterdam

Form: WLW

Francesco Farioli's men made a leap of faith on Wednesday to climb from the lower ranks to secure a spot in the top half following a decisive 5-0 home win over Fortuna Sittard.

This win couldn't have come at a better time for de Godenzonen, whose performance in the league was now under scrutiny following a disappointing 2-1 defeat against newly promoted NAC Breda away from home on August 18th. However, they did manage to compensate for this loss by thrashing Jagiellonia Białystok 7-1 on aggregate to qualify for the Europa League phase.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Pasveer; Rensch, Rugani, Baas, Hato; Taylor, Henderson, Klaassen; Traore, Akpom, Godts
