Tuesday's training session for the Ajacieden was largely focused on the start of a new Cup campaign. On Wednesday evening, the team, or rather, the talents and senior players, of head coach Fred Grim will play Dutch Cup match against Excelsior Maassluis. At sports complex De Toekomst, the final details were fine-tuned on the eve of the match.

The Maassluis-based club will host the Ajacieden on Wednesday from 18:45. The teams meet in the second round of the Dutch Cup. This round marks the entry of the professional teams that were eliminated in the first round. Excelsior Maassluis should certainly not be underestimated, if only because the upcoming opponents convincingly eliminated professional side Excelsior in the opening round. At the end of October, the final score was 1-0.

In that respect, the Ajacieden have already set a strong example against the same opposition. During the 2021/2022 season, Excelsior Maassluis were also Ajax’s opponents in the Cup. The match at the Johan Cruijff ArenA remains the only previous meeting between the two clubs. On January 20, 2022, Ajax recorded an emphatic 9–0 victory in front of their home crowd.
