Double chance : Ajax or draw

Ajax is heading into this match in strong form, having won three of their last five games and drawing the other two without a single loss. Groningen, on the other hand, have been more up and down, with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five, showing they can be unpredictable. Recent meetings between these two teams have often seen plenty of goals, with four of the last five matchups featuring three or more goals, including a 3-1 win for Groningen earlier this season. Given Ajax's solid recent run and home advantage, this looks like a close but open contest where Ajax should have the edge to come out on top.
