Ajax's recent form has been mixed, with a heavy defeat against FC Utrecht, but with several wins against Willem II, NAC Breda and PSV Eindhoven. Their last game at home ended in a draw against AZ Alkmaar. Sparta Rotterdam have been in better form, securing victories against Heerenveen, NEC Nijmegen, and Fortuna Sittard.
