Rather than back Ajax on the 1x2 market, our betting prediction is to back them off a -1.5 goal handicap. We’re taking the +120 that they beat NEC Nijmegen by two goals or more.

Expert Analysis

The team news that filters through can have a knock-on effect as far as the odds are concerned. We use this information along with the form guide, while the latest stats are also taken into consideration.

Key Ajax vs NEC Nijmegen stats:

  • Ajax have not lost any of their last 7 home matches
  • Ajax have scored 2 or more goals in 16 of their past 21 matches this season
  • Ajax have won 6 of their past 10 home matches
  • NEC Nijmegen have conceded 2 or more goals in 6 of their last 10 away matches
  • NEC Nijmegen have failed to win any of their last 3 away matches

We’re confident that our selection can win by a sizeable margin in this Eredivisie game. Therefore, the pick includes backing the +120 about the favourite with a -1.5 goal Asian Handicap.

If you want to take things a step further, you can back Ajax -2.5 and hope that they secure a margin of victory which is three goals or more.
