Ajax vs Utrecht Prediction & Betting Tips (4 December)

Huge return to the forefront for Ajax who missed their point at the start of the season and who are returning to put their noses back at the head of the championship table. Indeed, with this day's delay, Ajacides are still 2nd in the elite and have the opportunity to come back to within four points of the impressive PSV. It must be said that defeats are rare now for the four-time winner of the Champions League who has not lost in eleven days of the championship for a record of nine victories and two draws. Last weekend, Ajax went for the win on the lawn of Nijmegen 1-2, thus confirming its success after returning from the break for the arrival of Zwolle 2-0. On the other hand, last Thursday, the Europa League came to a halt with a setback against Real Sociedad 2-0.

Very little expected to reach the top of the table in the elite, Utrecht surprised everyone by being 3rd. and above all by having the opportunity to take the place of runner-up to the detriment of his evening counterpart. Like Ajax, defeats are rare for Utrecht but it is essential to remember that last weekend, after three successive successes against Sparta Rotterdam 1-4, Heracles 1-0, and NEC Nijmegen 1 -2, he lost quite heavily in the clash against PSV at home 2-5. 

Right-back Rensch went out injured on Sunday in the league and no risk will a priori be incurred to play this evening (probably out). He thus joined an infirmary made up of Gaston Avila (absent for a very long time), the important Brobbey, the young striker Godts (19 years old, 2 goals, 1 assist in the league), the Norwegian midfielder Mannsverk, the substitute Rijkhoff , and the long-term injured Axel Dongen. Supersub Wout Weghorst (5 goals in 9 appearances) scored twice to give his team victory against Nijmegen. Still not productive this season in the Eredivisie, Berghuis should still start.  Suspended for the clash against PSV, Danish U20 international Andersen is not certain of being eligible again this evening.

Injured, Bozdogan, Gadellaa (replacement goalkeeper), and Belgian starting midfielder Alonzo Engwanda will probably be sidelined from the match sheet. On the other hand, in terms of good news, let's talk about the return from injury of the American Aaronson (4 goals in the championship). Loaned by Lorient Cathline is having a great campaign in the Netherlands with three goals on the clock.
