Double chance : draw or Ajax

Groningen have been struggling lately, losing their last two matches. They did manage a couple of wins before that, but their form has been inconsistent. Ajax have found it hard to win recently, drawing most of their last few games and also suffering a heavy defeat. When these teams have met, the matches often have several goals, with Ajax usually coming out on top.

Looking at their current form and past meetings, this looks like it could be a close game, but Ajax are the more likely team to win.
