Groaning under the weight of all this information? Fear not, my friend. Here's a breakdown.
Between the sticks, we have Matheus and Pasveer guardin' the net for Ajax, flaunting ratings of 7.40 and 7.30 respectively. They face an opposition goalie of Schendelaar with a rating of 6.57. Remember, best defense wins games...usually.
On the pitch, the glory boys from Ajax include Jorrel Hato and Anton Gaaei, guy can hit passes, I mean 95.7% and 83.7% accurate pass rates? Pure class. And we must give a big nod to Brian Brobbey, kid's been on a hot streak with 2 goals.
Over at PEC's corner, we have Dylan Vente with two goals under his belt, and the likes of Davy van den Berg and Odysseus Velanas – can't forget those names even if I tried – who been steady throughout the match.
Looking back a bit, Ajax seemed to enjoy their previous outings against PEC Zwolle, winning two and drawing one in their last three games. Momentum, anyone? It's also hard to ignore Ajax's regular season record, sitting at a comfortable 19-3-2 compared to PEC Zwolle's 6-7-11. Call me crazy, but I like winners.
Despite PEC Zwolle showing some fighting spirit in their recent games, notably thrashing Fortuna Sittard 4 to 1, they have struggled against more well-established sides, like Heracles. Meanwhile, Ajax has been cruising with successive victories. They're like a steamroller, they just keep movin'.
Taking all this into account, I'm loading all my chips onto Ajax. What's the margin you ask? Well, based on their recent form...
