Twente Team News
Twente enters this match after a draw with Groningen away, and the result was 1:1. The visiting team took the lead in the early stages of the match with a goal by young Sam Steijn. In the middle of the second half, the hosts scored an equalizing goal, which was the final result.
In the Eredivisie, they are in fifth place in the table with 37 points, only 6 points behind the first-placed Feyenoord. In the last five matches in the league, they recorded four draws and one victory. In the round of 16 of the cup, they eliminated the second division team Telstar with a score of 3:1, and the player of the match was Daan Rots who scored two goals.
Michal Sadilek, who was injured in the match against Groningen, will probably miss this match, and he will probably be replaced by Mathias Kjolo. It is expected that Sam Steijn will drop out of the starting line-up, and Michel Vlap will return to the starting 11.
It is expected that it will be another Twente low-scoring game since they have conceded only 13 goals in the previous part of the championship.
Ajax Team News
On the other hand, Ajax scored as many as nine goals in the last two matches, and Cambuur fell 0:5, while they beat Excelsior 1:4. Cambuur’s defense capitulated first-time thanks to Serbian striker Dusan Tadic, and the next two goals were scored by Steven Berghuis. Youngster Brian Brobbey scored the last two goals.
They are currently in third position with 40 points. In the last five matches in the league, they recorded two wins and three draws. In the round of 16 of the cup, they eliminated Den Bosch, which competes in the second division of the Netherlands.
Ajax will probably start this match with the same lineup as against Cambuur since they have no new injured players.
Just two matches ago, they appointed John Heitinga as the new head coach, and it is expected that they will continue their winning streak in this match as well.

Twente vs Ajax Prediction
After the change of coach, Ajax seems to be returning to their old form, and they are slight favorites in this match. However, due to Twente’s good defensive play, we are of the opinion that even if the visitors win this match, it will not be with many goals. That’s why our tip for this match is X/Ajax & under 3.5.
