Ajax is in great form. PSV, on the other hand, has become very bad later on. They started the league very well but could not continue. Ajax is currently in the lead despite playing one less match. If they complete their missing match and win, the point difference between them and PSV will increase to five. Ajax seems to be the strongest candidate for the championship this year. As long as PSV continues to regress in the game they play, Ajax may even reach a higher point difference.
Ajax are 2 points ahead of PSV with 1 game in hand, yes if Ajax can win that game and continue to perform consistently they can definitely top the standings continuously and really win the title.
Today Ajax suffered lost from Union Saint-Gilloise for the second leg of the Europa League but they are still ahead on aggregate because of their winning in the first leg, unfortunately Ajax had to get 1 red card received by Davy Klaassen and for the last 16 match later he will definitely be absent due to playing suspension.
Current difference is much bigger than 2 points because in last 10 games Ajax have 25 points while PSV have 16 points which give huge margin to Ajax for staying at the top and keeping title hopes at his best even though no one were thinking turn like this in Eredivisie, but Ajax make things possible with their performance and consistency.
Historic time for Dutch League as they have four teams in round of 16 in both elite leagues PSV and Feyenoord gone into Champions League while AZ Alkmaar and Ajax done Europa League which is surely impressive from these teams they are working on their quality and consistency which is giving them good results. Situation is interesting at the top with Ajax, PSV at top and Utrecht, Feyenoord and AZ Alkmaar are doing their best for keeping things challenging on other spots fans could be really excited with this level of play from these teams.
