Yes, but in the Champions League Ajax has another wonderful advantage compared to most other teams: nobody expects anything from them. Nobody expects them to reach the finals or to even win the CL. They can just play their very best and then see how far that best paired with a little bit of luck maybe, will get them. I think they are going to play a serious role in the final round in the CL for a good while.

not sure about that, I think that fans expect at least QF from Ajax, and that would not be easy for them
they are playing great in the group stage, but it is really up to draw in kick-out rounds, and that could be a booger for Ajax, if they draw some really hard opponent in next rounds, first kick-out round should be easy, since they will start from top spot, but after that anything can happen

Damn I have a hard time believing Ajax' goal difference. That must definitely be record breaking not only for the Eredivisie, but probably in Europe soccer history ever. 3.2 to 0.133 goals per game after 15 games. Every 8 games they concede one goal. Cheesy Yet they have three draws and a loss, which is the most surprising when you see those stats. Anyway, they just have proven with their 5 - 0 that they are extremely stable. Whoever they are going to face in the Champions League, it is not going to be easy against them. Those guys are seriously on fire.

Ajax has a very good defence this year and as you mentioned also in the Champions League where the opponents are a bit stronger than in the domestic league. In the league itself, PSV won their game yesterday and Feyenoord must now follow suit tonight in order not to lose the connection, this year everything is very exciting.

Ajax played a home match against Willem II yesterday. And they demolished Willem II by a score like 5-0 easily. Maybe Willem II started nicely to the season but they didn't have anything to do against Ajax here in this away match. There is a very visible gap between these two teams and I wouldn't expect a different thing to happen. Maybe Ajax can pull a little away from one of the closest teams that follow them in the standings.
The current season Ajax is really superior and the proof is that they managed to dominate the current position table with only one defeat from 15 matches.
apart from that they also dominate the UCL position table as well and in fact they have never experienced a defeat even though it is proof that ajax currently cannot be underestimated.

At the start of the Eradivisie I actually saw the Willem II's performance as promising but for now they are really messed up. Their last 6 matches (Eradivisie & KNVB) have all been lost which saw them drop deep into the mid-table

Well even if Willem performed well, they wouldn't have the tiniest chance to compete with Amsterdam over the course of a whole season. PSV is probably the only team that could stay close behind Amsterdam, but it all depends on Amsterdam and whether they are going to make mistakes or not.

The start of the new game week is going to be with the Ajax - Willem II game tonight. Ajax are the leader of the league now but Feyenoord and PSV are right behind Ajax respectively. They would like to win this game and hope for their closest opponents to lose points this week. Willem II were one of the teams that made a great start. But they are on a terrible streak now. In this condition, I don't wait for them to be able to resist Ajax.

Ajax won their match yesterday 5:0. Today PSV should follow suit, but they have against Utrecht the 4th of the table a difficult game, even Utrecht knows that they have to win in order not to lose the connection to the TOP 3 completely. Feyenoord has the game only on Sunday against the penultimate of the table.

I'm quite happy to see a great competition for the title among three teams now: Ajax (33 points), PSV (31 points) and Feyenoord (29 points). For some time, PSV and Feyenoord made use of the point losses that Ajax made and closed the gap very much. But at the last weekend, they both lost 2 points when Ajax won their away game against S. Rotterdam by a 1-0 score. But it doesn't seem like Ajax will be able to have a very comfortable title in this season. And I'd be glad if at least one of the other two teams can keep chasing Ajax till the last week of the season for the title.

Yesterday Feyenoord won their supplementary match and is now 2nd in the table, one point behind Ajax and one point ahead of PSV. It seems that this year's season will be more exciting, but wait for the spring and how far Ajax comes in the Champions League. Champions League is also again a load and there can be spared as good as no players, also PSV and Feyenoord play internationally and need more forces, wait and see which team can handle the many loads better.

It is a great weekend for Ajax. Because they defeated Sparta Rotterdam by 1-0. In the meantime, Feyenoord and PSV both got a draw against Twente and Heerenveen respectively. And they both couldn't win a game that they dominated fully. Because of this reason also, it is a lucky weekend for Ajax at the same time. There is still a very little gap among Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord in the league standings though. But these results helped Ajax take a deep breath at least.

I was also very surprised last night that Feyenoord and PSV have only played a draw, good for Ajax but 2 points also mean nothing, you can also quickly squander again. But Feyenoord has one game less and can fight with a victory on Wednesday to 2nd place and overtake PSV and would then be only one point behind Ajax.

Nothing to say, Ajax doing a perfect game for this week, he was created a perfect point in the champion league and also make 2 points left with the Eredivisie opponent. PSV is playing well they have 65% ball position and have 8 corner kicks but only have 1 chance of a goal. in The Uefa euro league position also has a chance defeated by the real Sociedad when he can't get a win next.

Correct and the Eredivison representatives play this year a very good round internationally in Europe, see 5 year rating.

Most points this year currently ahead of all others.

Feyenoord was short on expectation to win over Twente, with a goalless draw and it was left below with 2 points difference from top duo - Ajax and PSV

it would be great to see interesting season with three teams fighting for the title, but I think that Ajax will clear the difference as soon as they left Champions league

today we saw 2 surprise draws from Feyenoord and PVS vs Twente and Heerenveen respectively. sunday matches were scarce for goals and this is very strange for Eredivisie.

Ajax came out on top with a narrow 0:1 win but with over 70% possession. The Feyenoord game starts soon and PSV play in the evening, they will try to keep up with Ajax, so the league will stay exciting for a long time, it's been a long time since 3 teams could fight for the title. Ajax is certainly further along in the Champions League and will probably save some energy there for the league?

Ajax have finally won the victory they wanted by 5-0 against Waalwijk today. They drew with Heracles and Go Ahead Eagles consecutively before this match. They needed to gather themselves up as PSV and Feyenoord both have closed the gap with Ajax on the last weeks. While Ajax were ending Waalwijk, PSV and Feyenoord also won comfortably against Vitesse (2-0) and Zwolle (4-0) respectively. All of these three teams are fired up right now. We'll wait and see if the competition will go on very close among these teams until the last week of the season.

Very strong game from Ajax, again no goal conceded and 5 goals scored, top. PSV has also won and can not be easily lost. Feyenoord also remains at the top and still wants to make the championship exciting. The first 3 places are separated by only 2 points. This week are again also international games, Ajax is as good as further but will probably still run up with the strongest team.

today Ajax won 5-0 at RKC and returned 1st place in the table. Feyenoord also won match vs Zwolle 4-0 and now has 2 points less but 1 match in hands so potentially can lead the table.
