Utrecht is definitely in excellent form and fully deserves to have reached the playoffs for participation in the Conference League. The team even started this phase successfully, having managed to defeat Heerenveen a few days ago. This was also the fourth consecutive victory for the team, which further boosts their confidence ahead of the upcoming clash with Ajax.
Ajax seeks revengeInterestingly, the two teams met less than two weeks ago, and Utrecht achieved victory, despite Ajax having more initiative in the match. However, the stakes are significantly higher now, and the pressure will certainly be greater. Ajax managed to overcome Groningen in the previous stage of the playoffs and will likely approach this match with much more focus.
Prediction: Ajax victoryI expect a contested match in which Utrecht will again try to leverage their good current form. Nevertheless, Ajax's class and experience in such matches are hard to overlook. That is why I believe that this time the visitors will show a better side and will manage to secure the victory.
