Expert Analysis

Knowing the players that are injured give us a helping hand when putting together football betting tips. Once we’ve also looked at the form guide, we use the available stats and make predictions.

Key Ajax vs Heerenveen stats:

  • Ajax have not lost any of their last 10 home matches
  • Ajax have scored 2 or more goals in 16 of their past 20 matches
  • Heerenveen have conceded 2 or more goals in 15 of their last 20 matches
  • Heerenveen have failed to win any of their last 4 matches

Rather than back Ajax on the 1x2 market, our Eredivisie tip is to back them off a -1.5 goal handicap. We’re taking the 2.05 that they win by two goals or more.

There’s a chance to move the line and back Ajax with a bigger handicap which means you get more attractive odds.
