Almere City vs AFC Ajax Amsterdam Prediction and Betting Tips | November 12th 2023

Fresh off the back of yet another disappointing Europa League result, Ajax journey to the Yanmar Stadion to face Almere City in the Eredivisie on Sunday. The home side head into the weekend unbeaten in their last six outings across all competitions and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Almere City maintained their fine run of results as they picked up a 2-1 victory over Sparta Rotterdam at the Sparta Stadion last Monday. Prior to that, Alex Pastoor’s side stormed through the first round of the KNVB Beker courtesy of an 8-1 thrashing of OJC Rosmalen on October 31.

With 12 points from 11 matches, Almere are currently ninth in the Eredivisie table, one point and two places above Sunday’s visitors. Ajax, on the other hand, were denied their first Europa League win of the season as they fell to a 2-0 loss against Brighton & Hove Albion on Thursday.

Back home, John van't Schip’s men have stopped the rot, claiming two wins in their last two Eredivisie matches, having managed just one in their opening eight outings to start the season.

While Ajax will look to make it three league wins on the spin, they have struggled to get going away from home, where they are without a league win this season.
