Willem II vs Ajax H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

Willem II faced Ajax in the Eredivisie of Netherlands on April 13. Ajax wrapped up the match with a 1-2 triumph.

The decisive moment occurred on the 41st minute when Emilio Kehrer found the net, putting Willem II ahead. This was followed by goals from Oliver Edvardsen and Wout Weghorst, bringing the match to a 1-2 conclusion.

As Willem II and Ajax meet again, the memory of Willem II's 1-0 win in their Eredivisie face-off from 8 months ago still lingers. Willem II's recent form has been disappointing, with consecutive defeats to Heerenveen, Almere City, Go Ahead Eagles, Utrecht, Sparta Rotterdam and Groningen, currently in the midst of a eleven-game winless stretch. Addressing their defensive shortcomings will be a priority for progress, since their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last thirteen matches.

Ajax's most recent outings, on the other hand, ended in two straight victories against NAC and PSV, setting a positive tone ahead of this match.

In this Eredivisie showdown, the spotlight will fall on the players who have been pivotal for Willem II and Ajax throughout the campaign. Willem II’s Kyan Vaesen and Ringo Meerveld have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by Peter Maes, remains effective. With five goals in Eredivisie, Bosch is Willem II’s top scorer in the league, with Kehrer topping their assist tally in the competition with three. Willem II’s attacking depth is further showcased by Cisse Sandra, Jeremy Bokila and Nick Doodeman, who have each made valuable contributions this season.

Meanwhile, Ajax’s leading scorer Kenneth Taylor and Bertrand Traore have played significant roles in the team’s attack, shaped by Francesco Farioli’s vision, each providing decisive moments in their offensive play. Taylor leads Ajax’s scoring charts in Eredivisie this season with nine goals, while also leading the team in assists, having set up six goals this campaign. Supporting them are Mika Godts, Brian Brobbey and Wout Weghorst, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Ajax’s attack.
