Defensively, Ko Itakura and Lucas Rosa have brought grit, though Ajax’s record on the road leaves plenty to be desired. Earlier this year, Ajax claimed a 2–0 victory in the reverse fixture, but PSV’s unbeaten home record and attacking momentum suggest the balance may tilt this time. PredictionGiven Ajax’s poor recent away form—12 straight defeats and 13 matches without a win—the odds favor PSV. A victory would not only extend PSV’s unbeaten home streak but also solidify their credentials as title contenders, while testing Ajax’s ability to respond under pressure. Prediction: PSV 3 – 1 Ajax
