Jong Ajax vs Venlo Prediction & Betting Tips (6 October)

Jong Ajax have not been in the best of form on their own patch recently, winning just two of their previous 13 top-flight matches, and the Seagulls have actually been beaten in four of their last six home games. Venlo, by way of contrast, have enjoyed eight wins in 12 the Eerste Divisie fixtures of late, and they have splashed the cash on new players this summer.

High-flying Venlo have proven extremely entertaining to watch in recent weeks, with their previous five matches in the Eerste Divisie producing a staggering 26 goals. It has been a similar story as far as Jong Ajax are concerned, as a minimum of three goals have been netted in eight of their last 11 games at this level, so more of the same is expected in this encounter.

Jong Ajax have both scored and conceded in 13 of their previous 16 Eerste Divisie home games, including in each of the last five, whilst the home club have kept just a single clean sheet during this run. What’s more, eight of the most recent 12 Venlo away matches at this level have followed suit, and they have only pitched one shutout in 13 trips themselves.
