Ajax head into their fixture with Groningen on Sunday looking to strengthen their grip of top spot in the Eredivisie standings.
Meanwhile, the visitors have put together a four-match unbeaten streak in the Dutch top flight, moving the club to within three points of fourth position.
We say: Ajax 3-0 Groningen
After their near-miss against PSV, complacency is unlikely to be a factor at Ajax for the remainder of the season. With that in mind, we are backing the home side to cruise to victory, their cause helped by a couple of early strikes.

PSV Eindhoven head into Sunday's meeting with Fortuna Sittard looking to stay within touching distance of Eredivisie leaders Ajax.
While the visitors have put together a four-match unbeaten streak, Sittard sit in ninth position having lost two games over the same period.
We say: Fortuna Sittard 1-3 PSV Eindhoven
After the disappointment of last weekend, PSV have little choice but to go on the front foot on Sunday. Nevertheless, that approach could benefit this side, and we are backing the visitors to claim a relatively comfortable victory against inconsistent opponents.

Heracles vs. PEC Zwolle (Sunday, 1.30pm)
Fresh off the back of ending a five-game winless streak last time out, PEC Zwolle travel to the Erve Asito for their clash with Heracles on Sunday.
The hosts come into this one having not won any of their last three games, and they are just three points above their visitors.
We say: Heracles 1-1 PEC Zwolle
Heracles have stuttered in recent weeks, but they are still one of the league's most in-form teams since the turn of the year while Zwolle were on a bad run of form prior to that win last time out. On that note, we are backing a stalemate in this one, leaving the hosts above their visitors on the log.

AZ Alkmaar head into Sunday's fixture with Vitesse looking to record their fifth successive victory in the Eredivisie.
While the visitors are just two points adrift of second-placed PSV Eindhoven, Vitesse will move to within one point of third with maximum points at the weekend.
We say: Vitesse 1-1 AZ Alkmaar
Having established a clear advantage over sixth spot, AZ will feel that they can push for all three points with minimal pressure. Nevertheless, Vitesse can only have benefitted from their two victories over Venlo, leading us to predict a competitive draw.
