Fortuna Sittard - Ajax

Saturday evening at the Fortuna Sittard Stadion, Fortuna Sittard welcome Ajax for an Eredivisie matchday 6 encounter. The hosts enter this fixture with momentum, having secured consecutive away victories against ADO Den Haag and FC Groningen in recent weeks. With Mattijs Branderhorst expected to start in goal, Fortuna Sittard will look to maintain their attacking rhythm against a visiting side looking to recover from a recent setback.

Ajax arrive following a difficult 3-1 defeat to PSV Eindhoven, a result that interrupted a run of high-scoring performances across domestic and European competition. With Marc-Andre ter Stegen likely to anchor the defence, the visitors aim to reassert their authority in the league. Their recent history against Fortuna Sittard has been productive, including a 4-1 victory on 14 February 2026, though the home side’s current form suggests a more competitive test this time around.
