Ajax’s Hope for a Title Revival Amidst PSV’s Dominance

Regarding the title race in the Eredivisie, the situation appears to be firmly in place. League leaders PSV are currently a staggering sixteen points ahead of Feyenoord and eighteen points in front of Ajax. Consequently, any sense of competition seems virtually absent. Nevertheless, Ajax player Youri Regeer still harbors a flicker of hope for a complete collapse of PSV.

Youri Regeer remains optimistic about Ajax’s title chances.

Last season, PSV experienced a significant downturn, allowing Ajax to almost seize the title towards the end of the campaign. However, the Amsterdam club ultimately squandered their opportunity in the final moments, resulting in the title being retained by PSV. The Eindhoven team now appears to be on track for their third consecutive championship.

The prospect of a PSV collapse is not something the midfielder is willing to dismiss. “As my father always says, ‘You never know how the ball will bounce.'” For this to happen, PSV would need to experience a total breakdown. Last season, they held a nine-point advantage over Ajax, who then managed to leapfrog them by nine points. However, such a scenario seems unlikely this time around. Currently, PSV looks very stable, while Ajax has not made the same impression. Just last Sunday, Ajax relinquished a 2-0 lead against Go Ahead Eagles.
