Command Analysis
FC Groningen
NetherlandsCurrent form
Throughout the season, Groningen is not stable, alternating between individual successful stretches with failures, unsuccessfully playing against the leaders. It is not surprising that after 32 rounds, the team is only in 11th place. Nevertheless, there is motivation for the remaining two rounds, as the gap from the ninth place, which gives the right to compete for the Conference League, is only one point. In the last round, Groningen could not do anything against AZ – an away defeat with a score of 0:3. Before that, there were two consecutive victories over not the most difficult rivals, Heracles (4:1) and Waalwijk (6:1).

Mariani and Tjuraj will not play today due to injuries.

Ajax
NetherlandsCurrent form
Ajax risks missing out on the long-awaited title at the very end. In the last three rounds, the Ajax failed to win a single victory, and suffered two defeats and drew once. Such results are alarming, especially the 0-3 home defeat to Nijmegen in the last round. The result of these failures was that PSV came close to Ajax in the standings – just one point gap between direct competitors for the first place. Obviously, Francesco Farioli's players have no right to make mistakes today.

11.50Tip and bets
Ajax's series of failures has clearly dragged on. Three matches without a win led to the fact that PSV got close to the leader, there is nowhere to retreat further. There is a game ahead against a comfortable opponent, whom Ajax beat in six previous head-to-head matches. Plus, Groningen regularly fails matches against the leaders, which could be seen the day before in the confrontation with AZ. We believe that the favorite will score the much-needed three points today, but the difference in class is noticeable in this pair.
Our prediction is that Ajax will win with an Asian handicap (-1) for a coefficient of 2.10
Bet on the total
In the previous four face-to-face matches, the rivals exchanged goals scored. Ajax's attack is at its best, it is unlikely that the team will be left without their balls today. At the same time, Groningen clearly will not rely solely on defense on its own field and will respond.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.69
The first half bet
Ajax does not play the best way in the opening stages, they did not win in the first half in the previous four matches. Based on this trend, we recommend another option for betting on a match.
Betting Tip – Groningen will not lose in the first half with a coefficient of 1.65
