Ajax II Roda JC betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a very valuable match for Roda, who could gain many positions with a win and move into the qualification zone for the playoffs. However, in order to win, the away team will have to overcome the best defense in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025, which has conceded just 6 goals in 9 games. That's why we're betting on Under 3.5 Goals in this game, an entry that has won Jong Ajax's 9 home games and 6 of Roda's 10 away matches.

However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 26‑04‑2024, in a match for the Eerste Divisie they tied (1‑1). The goals of the match were scored by S. Vos (13' ), for Ajax, and by V.

Analysis Ajax

After 4 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses, the home team is in the 16th position, havinf won 18 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against TOP Oss by (2‑1), after in the previous match they have won (2‑0) at home, against De Graafschap. For the league, Ajax won 9 points out of 27 possible points, after 2 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in the last 9 home matches. 6 of their last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 8 of their 19 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Jong Ajax is a reserve team that plays in the Eerste Divisie solely to give experience to young players who are being groomed to join Ajax's main squad for the Eredivisie and other elite competitions. The team has the best defense of any side in the 2024/2025 Eerste Divisie (6 goals conceded in 9 games, an average of 0.6 goals conceded per home game). Jong Ajax are also the second least fouled team in the league (10.8 fouls committed per matchday). Coach Frank Peereboom will have to change his starting line-up from last season, based on a 4-2-3-1 tactical formation, as defender and captain Nick Verschuren will be suspended for his fifth yellow card of the season. Ryan van de Pavert and Jorthy Mokio are vying for the position. England's Charlie Setford, the second most-capped goalkeeper in the competition (5.4 saves per appearance), and left winger Jaydon Banel, the third highest finisher (4.2 shots per appearance) and the third highest shot-stopper in the league (1.5 shots on goal per match played) are expected to feature.

Confirmed Lineup: Paul Peters Reverson, Jorthy Mokio, Gerald Alders, Dies Janse, Aaron Bouwman, Mark Thomas Willem Verkuijl, Sean Steur, Nassef Chourak, Jan Faberski, Jaydon Amauri Banel, Julian Rijkhoff.
Coach: J. Heitinga.

Analysis Roda

The away team is currently in the 9th position of the league, with 30 points won, after 8 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Jong PSV, by (2‑3). In the last match, they lost in a home match against FC Dordrecht, by (0‑1). In the last 10 away league matches Roda has a record of 3 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 13 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (5 out of 10 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 19 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 10 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 6 of their 13 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

A win is worth a lot to Roda, who have won their last two away matches, as it will move them up to 5th place in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025, i.e. within the qualifying zone for the playoffs. The team is the worst tackler in the league (average of 12.8 tackles per matchday), but curiously has been performing well defensively. Coach Bas Sibum is likely to make changes to last week's starting line-up, based on the 4-2-3-1 tactical formation, as right-back Jay Kruiver will be available again after serving a suspension and could feature in place of Joey Muller. Goalkeeper Koen Bucker and left-back Koen Jansen have been out injured since the first half of September. Left winger Cain Seedorf, Clarence Seedorf's nephew, is Roda's standout performer (3 goals and 4 assists in 18 appearances).

Confirmed Lineup: Nick Marsman, Thomas Oude Kotte, Nathangelo Markelo, Joey Müller, Brian Koglin, Lucas Beerten, Ryan Yang Leijten, Orhan Dzepar, Patriot Sejdiu, Thibo Baeten, Cain Seedorf.
Coach: J. Streppel.
