Preview
Ajax and AZ II meet at Sportpark De Toekomst, in a match for the 5th round of the Eerste Divisie. The head‑to‑head record at this stadium couldn't be more balanced, as it shows 1 draw and 2 wins for each team in the last 5 head‑to‑heads. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, on 10‑05‑2024, for the Eerste Divisie, Jong AZ won by (1‑4). J. Banel (70' ) scored for Ajax and Damienus Reverson (83' ), Finn Stam (32' ), Ricuenio Kewal (43' ) and Jurre van Aken (52' ) for AZ II. AZ II registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.
Analysis Ajax
The home team faces AZ II, in a match for the 5 round, which had been delayed, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in the league so far. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. Ajax has won 3, tied 3 and lost 4 of the last 10 home matches. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition.
Jong Ajax is having a strong campaign, exceeding expectations set by long-term markets. However, it's important to note that reserve teams from clubs whose main squads compete in the Eredivisie, the top league, cannot compete for promotion. Jong Ajax won their most recent game 0-1 away at Cambuur but was defeated 1-2 at home by Den Bosch in their previous home game. Defensively, Jong Ajax has been a surprise this season, ranking among the leaders for clean sheets with 3 games without conceding and holding the second-best defensive record in the league, having conceded only 4 goals in 5 matches. Offensively, Jong Ajax is notable for being the top team in terms of total shots, with an average of 18.4 shots per game, but they fall to third in terms of shots on target, with 6.6 per game. Coach Frank Peereboom often relies on the intentions of Francesco Farioli, the head coach of the main squad, regarding the use of players who alternate between the first team and Jong Ajax. Nonetheless, Peereboom has no official injuries or suspensions to contend with. Expected to feature are left winger Jaydon Banel, the second-best finisher in the league with 4.6 shots per game, and especially striker Julian Rijkhoff, the top finisher in the Eerste Divisie with an average of 2.2 shots on target per game. English goalkeeper Charlie Setford is the second-highest in terms of saves in the league, with an average of 5.3 saves per match, but he was not included in the last fixture. German goalkeeper Diant Ramaj took his place and was even named the best player on the pitch.
Confirmed Lineup: C. Setford, Lucas Jetten, Jorthy Mokio, Ahmetcan Kaplan, Nassef Chourak, Julian Christiaan Brandes, Gerald Alders, Jaydon Amauri Banel, Julian Rijkhoff, Jan Faberski.
Coach: J. Heitinga.
Analysis AZ II
The away team faces Ajax, in a match for the 5 round, which had been delayed, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in the league so far. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 27 goals scored and 30 conceded; against 10 wins and 5 losses at their stadium, with 38 goals scored and 18 conceded. In the last 10 away matches AZ II has won 3, tied 3 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition.
Jong AZ was a standout among reserve teams last season, but they're struggling in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025. The team has failed to score in their last two matches, drawing 0-0 away to Telstar and losing 0-1 at home to Vitesse. The situation is even worse on the road: Jong AZ is the worst away team in the league, having earned only 1 point from 2 away games without scoring, while conceding 6 goals to their opponents. Coach Lee-Roy Echteld does not have any known injuries or suspensions but relies heavily on Belgian Maarten Martens, the head coach of AZ Alkmaar, who sometimes deploys players who also play for Jong AZ. Goalkeeper Daniel Deen has the highest average of goals conceded in the league, with 2.7 per game. Meanwhile, left-back Sem Dekkers, the league's top tackler with an average of 4.7 tackles per game, has been on the bench due to Echteld's choices. Right winger Jayden Addai, the second-highest contributor to goals in the competition with 3 goals and 2 assists in just 2 games, has not played for Jong AZ since the 3rd round, as he has been featuring for the AZ Alkmaar first team.
Confirmed Lineup: Hobie Verhulst, Rayan Atikallah, J. Berkhout, Elijah Dijkstra, Misha Engel, Enoch Mayele Kiemba Mastoras, Kees Smit, Dave Kwakman, Lequincio Zeefuik, Jayden Addai, Ro-Zangelo Daal.
Coach: M. Vonk.
