How to watch the Eredivisie match between Ajax and Volendam, as well as kick-off time and team news.
Current relegation battlers in Eredivisie 2023-24, Ajax and Volendam are set to face off at the Johan Cruyff Arena on Thursday.
Maurice Steijn stepped down as Ajax head coach in the aftermath of the 4-3 league loss to Utrecht, while assistant coach Hedwiges Maduro took charge of the club’s next two games in all competitions.
Following defeats against Brighton and PSV in the Europa League and Eredivisie, respectively, Ajax have appointed former player John Van’t Schip as interim coach for the rest of the season.
While Ajax sit at rock bottom of the league table, Volendam are two points clear courtesy the latter’s 3-1 win against Excelsior last Friday.
