Finally, NAC earned promotion to the top tier of Dutch football since being relegated in the 2018–19 season. Interestingly, this is a team that made the playoffs for five consecutive seasons in the second-tier league and finally achieved the breakthrough they were looking for in the previous season by defeating Excelsior in the play-offs.
However, Carl Hoefkens' men were met with a frosty reception in their season opener against Groningen, the club they earned promotion with this season. Enes Mahmutovic's early sending-off saw them succumb to a 4-1 defeat away from home.
Without any points on the board, NAC find themselves in 17th place within the relegation zone and are one point adrift of safety. Aware that they need to escape the clutches of the drop zone, picking up three points in this fixture could turn out to be an arduous task given the caliber of their opponents.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 5-3-2
Bielica; Kuijpers, Greiml, Koscelnik, Van den Bergh, Royo; Staring, Balard, Janosek; Omarsson, Kostorz
Ajax Amsterdam
Ajax Amsterdam, who not so long ago were behind a string of unpleasant results and setting unwanted records for the wrong reasons in the previous season, have since made strides to turn their fortunes around.
Francesco Farioli's men kicked off the Eredivisie season with a 1-0 home victory against Heerenven, which was followed by a 13-12 victory over Panathinaikos in penalties in the Europa League qualifiers.
With three points in the bag, Ajax Amsterdam now sits in fifth place, level on points with leaders PSV Eindhoven. They are three points ahead of the drop zone and their opponents in this impending encounter.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-3-3
Pasveer; Gaaei, Sutalo, Baas, Hato; Van den Boomen, Mannsverk, Hlynsson; Berghuis, Godts, Akpom

Expert Betting Tips
NAC Breda had an unconvincing start to the season last time out and will be out to make amends in front of their fans. They will be aiming to capitalize on their opponent's fatigue to secure a favorable outcome and halt their
Despite losing just one of their last five competitive matches under Francesco Farioli's guidance, it's safe to say that Ajax Amsterdam have been far from convincing with their performances, particularly in the final third, where they have lacked the cutting edge. However, bookmakers still have faith in them and are overwhelming favorites to walk with all three points.
Considering that four of Ajax's last five competitive matches have seen the total go under 3.5 goals, we anticipate the same trend to continue here in what could turn out to be a low-scoring affair.
- Goals - Under 3.5 for 2.01
- Result/Total Goals - Ajax Amsterdam/Under 3.5 for 2.75
- Total 2 - Under 2.5 for 1.96
