OM VS AJAX
Date: 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 at 20:00
BET ON: Over / Under Cards- Over +3.50
Odd: 1.60
- Marseille and Ajax both rank among the most carded teams in their domestic leagues this season—Marseille are third in Ligue 1 for cards, and Ajax are fifth in the Eredivisie at home. Both teams play with intensity and aren’t afraid to go into tackles. Marseille, under Roberto De Zerbi, apply high pressing, which often leads to transition-heavy games and tactical fouls when caught out. Ajax, with pace and strength on the counter, are well-suited to force those situations.
- Historically, Ajax don’t back down against southern European sides, averaging 16.5 fouls per match across their last seven games against such opponents. Marseille are equally combative and unlikely to allow Ajax control without confrontation, which could raise the foul and card count.
- Referee Anthony Taylor is slightly below his usual card output this season but still averages close to 4 cards per game and tends to show a red about every sixth club match. He has a reputation for firm control in high-stakes fixtures and isn't hesitant to act when physical play escalates.
- With both teams highly motivated—Marseille riding strong home form and Ajax looking to recover from inconsistency—the conditions are primed for a heated and physical contest likely to exceed 3.5 cards.
