We said: Ajax 2-2 FC Volendam

Van't Schip will be keen to put his stamp on Ajax and make an immediate impact, but success on Thursday is not a given considering Volendam's upturn in form in recent weeks. Both teams have been leaky at the back so far this season and have scored in each of their last five meetings with each other, so goals can be expected in this fixture, but we believe that Volendam will do enough to hold on for a point in Amsterdam.
