SC Heerenveen - AFC Ajax

Another match of the Dutch Eredivisie, which is likely to end in a lot of goals scored is the one between the teams of Heerenveen and Ajax. Reviewing the statistics of the current season in this league, it is striking that 74% of the games ended with over 2.5 goals scored. Furthermore, Heerenveen and Ajax are among the top 5 offensive teams, respectively scoring 2.67 goals per game and 2.33.

The team of Heerenveen started the season with an astonishing victory over AZ Alkmaar with 4-2, but lost in the last round with the same result to Heracles. This match is quite special in particular for the home manager Marco van Basten, who had a magnificent career in Ajax. Last season, the team of Van Basten, reached ​​two draws against this rival and such a turn of events seems fairly likely for this meeting.

Ajax have won 11 of their last 13 games in the Eredivisie. In its away games the team is performing rather well, having scored at least 2 goals in its last 9 matches away from home. Heerenveen itself has conceded at least 2 goals in 5 of its last 6 home matches and hence we can expect this one to end in a lot of goals.
