Bryan Ruiz is no longer with Twente, meaning someone else will have to step up and find some goals because Twente will need some to keep up with Ajax in a top of the table clash
Ajax Vs. Twente, 2011 Dutch Eredivisie Week 7: Top Of The Table Clash In Amsterdam
It’s a battle for the top spot in the Dutch Eredivisie on Saturday when Twente visit Amsterdam to take on Ajax. I suppose that’s not entirely true because while Twente are top of the Eredivisie table on 15 points and Ajax are on 14 points, AZ Alkmaar is in the mix with 15 points of their own. Few expect AZ to stay there though. The expectation all along has been for Ajax and Twente to compete for the league crown and they’ll look to take a step towards that crown at Amsterdam Arena.
Twente has only been slowed down once this season, losing two weeks ago at Roda JC. Unsurprisingly, that was their first match after the sale of Bryan Ruiz to Fulham. With Ruiz gone, there were concerns about how Twente would play and they didn’t help ease any concerns with that loss to Roda JC, but they demolish ADO Den Haag 5-2 last week so maybe they won’t skip a beat with Ruiz gone? Well that’s unlikely, but they still may be good enough to challenge Ajax.
