Ajax plays host to Sparta Rotterdam in this Dutch Eredivisie match. The hosts are top of the table with 69 points while the visitors are in 16th position with just 22 points. Ajax have won their last four league matches which has allowed them to open up a four point lead over second placed PSV. They have bounced back well in their last two matches after they suffered a shock 1-0 home defeat to Benfica, a result that saw them eliminated from the Champions League. Their early exit will prove to be a blessing in disguise as they can now focus all their energies on retaining their Dutch title. Ajax have won their last five home matches in the league and last dropped points at home in December when they lost to AZ Alkmaar. They have won their last ten matches against Sparta Rotterdam.

Sparta Rotterdam had a 1-1 home draw against Heerenveen in their last match which took their unbeaten run to three matches. They are in the relegation zone but are just two points from safety with two matches in hand. Sparta Rotterdam recent form has given them a real good chance of avoiding relegation as they have picked up eight points in their last five matches with just one defeat. Their improvement in defence is the major reason for their resurgence as they have kept three clean sheets in the last five matches. Sparta Rotterdam do however have a very poor away record and are without a win in their last six matches on the road.
