Utrecht will host AFC Ajax Amsterdam at the Stadion Galgenwaard on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Eredivisie campaign. The home side have enjoyed a remarkable campaign and are on the verge of confirming a spot in next season's UEFA Europa League as they sit fourth in the league table with five games left to play.
They picked up a 3-1 win over Groningen in their last match, with Souffian El Karouani and Yoann Cathline netting early goals before Sebastien Haller sealed the points late in the first half.
AFC Ajax Amsterdam have performed brilliantly this season and are inching ever closer towards their first league title since the 2021-22 campaign.
