Sittard vs. Ajax (Saturday, 3.30pm)
Reigning champions Ajax begin their 2022-23 Eredivisie season with a clash against Fortuna Sittard at the Fortuna Sittard Stadion on Saturday.
Meanwhile, the hosts will be seeking to improve on a largely disappointing campaign last time out, and a winning start would be a step in the right direction.
We say: Fortuna Sittard 0-3 Ajax
Despite losing a number of their key players from last season, Ajax remain a huge force to reckon with, and we are backing them to cruise to a comfortable victory come the sound of the final whistle here.

Cambuur vs. SBV Excelsior (Saturday, 5.45pm)
In search of a winning start to their league campaign, Cambuur welcome SBV Excelsior to the Cambuur Stadion on Saturday in the opening round of the matches of the 2022/23 Eredivisie season.
On the other hand, the away side will be looking to make an early impression on their return to the Dutch top-flight following a three-year absence
We say: Cambuur 1-0 SBV Excelsior
Both teams are a tad low on confidence heading into this one and that could make for a nervy and cagey affair. That said, we are tipping Cambuur to carry the day, albeit by only a narrow margin.
