Vitesse hosts Ajax in round 1 of Dutch Eredivisie. The match will be played on Saturday, August 3rd at GelreDome (Arnhem)
Leonid Slutsky’s team will begin the season with a meeting against the current champion. In the last season, the club lacked a little to get in the European Cup arena. The Yellow-Blacks lost in the playoff finals. In the offseason, seven friendly meetings were played, where there were no high scoring, as well as outstanding results. Vitesse gained only one victory, but there were three defeats and three draws. Vitesse enters the season completely unprepared for the fight. There is no understanding of what the club will build on. On defense? But the Yellow-blacks conceded in six games out of seven. On the attack? But Hollywood at the Rhine showed something incomprehensible instead of a peppy attack.

Ajax is embarking on another campaign for the title. I do not see another scenario. The team has an excellently balanced, aggressive lineup, which is hard to be beaten. It played seven friendly meetings and won the Super Cup of the country. It is a good start of the season, given that the main competitor, PSV, was beaten in the final - 2:0. There was one defeat to Panathinaikos - 1:2, but considering that both teams made more than twenty substitutions in that match, it cannot be taken in the account. In the last season, Ajax smashed Vitesse twice. 0:4 away and 4:2 at home, thereby returning a favor for the 2017/18 season, where it lost both matches to Vitesse.
Is there any doubt about Ajax's victory? In my opinion, the team is already so active that it will win any opponent in the national championship with great superiority. The results of Vitesse's friendly matches do not cause optimism. Apparently, Slutsky awaits the fate of Kononov. I offer a bet on the victory of the visitors with a handicap.
Prediction for the match: Ajax to win with -1.0 handicap
