SBV Excelsior and Ajax are both seeking to continue their winning starts to the 2023-24 Eredivisie campaign, when the two sides meet at Stadion Woudestein on Saturday.
The hosts picked up a dramatic victory over NEC in their opening game of the season, while the visitors came from behind to defeat Heracles.
We say: SBV Excelsior 0-2 Ajax
Excelsior will enter Saturday's clash in buoyant mood after their dramatic win last weekend, but Ajax's record in this fixture in recent years is difficult to ignore.
Despite the departure of a few key players from last season, we believe that Steijn's side still have enough quality to claim maximum points.

Vitesse and PSV Eindhoven will lock horns at the GelreDome on Saturday, as both sides seek to continue their winning start to the new Eredivisie campaign.
Vites enjoyed a 2-1 opening-day victory against FC Volendam, while the visitors started their season off with a comprehensive win over FC Utrecht.
We say: Vitesse 0-2 PSV Eindhoven
PSV have started the season in brilliant form, and it is tough to see Vitesse slowing them down here, especially since the visitors are unbeaten in their last five encounters against Phillip Cocu's side.
We believe Bosz's men will make it two wins from two to begin the new Eredivisie campaign.

Almere City will be attempting to put their opening-day defeat behind them when they travel to face Fortuna Sittard on Saturday in the second game week of the Eredivisie.
The hosts are also still searching for their first victory of the campaign after being held to a goalless draw last weekend.
We say: Fortuna Sittard 2-0 Almere City
Fortuna Sittard managed to pick up an important point against tough competition on the opening day, and they should have the confidence to follow that up with a victory this weekend.
The visitors are in a difficult period and suffered a heavy loss last weekend, which is why the hosts should take all three points.

After a difficult opening day of the new campaign, Go Ahead Eagles will be attempting to get points on the board and lift themselves off the foot of the Eredivisie table on Saturday.
They will host FC Volendam, who much like their opponents, suffered a defeat last weekend, with both teams aiming to turn things around immediately.
We say: Go Ahead Eagles 1-2 FC Volendam
Both teams might have started the new campaign with defeats, but the visitors did put together a far more impressive performance and had control of their game until going down to 10 men.
With that in mind, FC Volendam will be hoping to secure all three points this time around if they can keep 11 men on the pitch.
