Into the Lion’s Den

It doesn’t get any tougher than a trip to Eindhoven, especially facing an in-form PSV side, but Ajax can go with some degree of confidence (well, some).

Two excellent wins over Anderlecht have restored what looked to be a difficult period for De Boer’s men, which included a disappointing 2-2 draw away to Roda (2-0 up as well), in saying that they haven’t lost since that capitulation at Utrecht in late January. Since; 7 games, 6 wins, 1 draw, 17 goals and just 3 conceded.

Ajax hasn’t won at the Philips Stadion since March 2007, a famous 5-1 victory in which Wesley Sneijder stared in. Some of the more recent visits are ones to forget for De Godenzonen – but they know defeat could put a massive spanner in their title hopes, a win and it’s game on.

Both sides come on the back of reaching the Europa League round of 16, so it should be a cracking contest when two of Holland’s most successful sides meet.
