What to expect
We expect about 1.3 goals from Groningen and 1.8 from Ajax, so Ajax come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 3.1 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.
Groningen come into this on two straight draws. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Over 2.5 goals. This should be an open game: we make it around 3.1 goals between the two (xG 1.3-1.8), landing about 67% of the time on these numbers. Both sides carry a threat, so the goals should follow.
We put the chance of that landing at about 65 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.39, which works out at about 72 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
