📊 Match recap and data context

Ajax won 5-1 at Fortuna Sittard in the Eredivisie, landing our model's 64% pick for an away victory. The hosts had shown some recent form with two wins in their last five, but Ajax's superior consistency proved decisive. Fortuna's last five matches featured both teams scoring in 80% of games, yet Ajax's defensive solidity this season, reflected in just 20% BTTS across their recent fixtures, held firm. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
