Ajax - Vitesse betting tips and odds

Vitesse will have little to hope for against Ajax. The home charges are bursting with confidence and it would take a small miracle for the away team to take anything from this game.

This one has Home Win written all over it. The hosts are expected to grab a firm hold of the proceedings and Vitesse will be left with slim pickings in this match.

,Questions arose about Ajax and their form after the mediocre performance we saw at their previous away game at Almere City . The entire match featured a lot of back-and-forth with little to show for it in a 2:2 draw.

The away team lost their previous Eredivisie engagement quite badly, recording a 1:3 defeat on home ground. The betting odds implied that the two teams were quite evenly matched, and they hit a stalemate that lasted until the second half. The poor showing towards the end doesn’t look good for Vitesse, though.

Ajax have a notably poor defensive record when it comes to playing as visitors. We’re mostly referring to the 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 away games. They are playing as hosts this time around, but you should be aware before you put down any money.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Eredivisie engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

Though Vitesse shouldn’t give the hosts too much trouble, Ajax have been struggling lately. They’re just 4 points above the relegation zone.

We’re still in the early stages of this year’s Eredivisie, but things are not looking great for Vitesse. They’re placed at 18th, well into the relegation zone. Although they’ll have time to improve their performance, getting their hands on any points in this matchup will be an uphill battle.

The odds being what they are, remember that they were priced with various injuries in mind. The hosts reported that Steven Bergwijn, Brian Brobbey, Jay Gorter, A. Van Axel Dongen, Branco van den Boomen, Silvano Cliff Robbie Vos, Sivert Mannsverk will have to sit this one out, while Vitesse will have to make do without Miliano Jonathans, Thomas Buitink, F. Fofana.

An Over 3.5 Goals is the best option for this fixture, though it’s not perfect by any means. That said, the notable risk of failure is worth it due to the considerable betting value that can be found in the 2.15 odds.
