Can Ajax Win the Eredivisie Title This Term?

Winning the championship is always the priority for the Netherlands’ most successful club, but Ajax have not won the Eredivisie since the 2021-22 season. Last term, they finished second to PSV Eindhoven by a single point.

PSV are the title favourites this season, but Ajax will be desperate for their first championship in four years. Before a Dutch top-flight ball has been kicked, Eindhoven are priced at 1.70, while Ajax are just behind at 3.00.

Telstar are back in the top tier of Dutch football for the first time since the 1970s after winning promotion via the play-offs last term. They finished seventh in the 2024-25 Erste Divisie, taking 61 points from 38 games.

The White Lions from North Holland were the underdogs in the play-offs, but they beat ADO Den Haag and Den Bosch to reach the final. Telstar then got the better of Willem II over two legs to secure their place in the top league. Staying up will be the aim for Anthony Correira and his troops.

Ajax vs Telstar Betting Odds

Ajax will be tipped by most to take all three points from their opening fixture. As expected, the hosts are the massive favourites, available at just 1.14.

Winning at the Johan Cruyff Arena would be a monumental achievement for last season’s second-division play-off winners. Telstar are the big underdogs at 16.00, while the draw is available at 7.60.

Recent Ajax vs Telstar Head-to-Head Meetings

These two teams met in the Dutch Cup last season, with Ajax picking up a routine 2-0 home victory. Second-half goals from Daniele Rugani and Chuba Akpom did the business.

Telstar gave Ajax a real scare in the same competition in 2019. The pair played out a seven-goal thriller in Velsen-Zuid, with the Amsterdam outfit leaving with a narrow 4-3 win.

Ajax vs Telstar Betting Tips & Predictions

Ajax should secure maximum points from this opening fixture, but we fancy Telstar to get on the scoresheet at the Johan Cruyff Arena. The home victory and both teams to score is available at 2.45.

There have been nine goals scored in the previous two meetings, and we could be in for a goal fest in Amsterdam at the weekend. We like the look of 3.00 for the Ajax win and over 4.5 goals.
