On Thursday, the Spanish coach looked ahead to the home meeting with the Tukkers during his press moment. Speaking at sport complex de Toekomst, García expressed respectful words about the opposition, but above all showed a firm determination to win the match. That is also necessary, as Ajax and FC Twente are close to each other in the table. Very close, in fact. After 28 league matches, the Amsterdam-based team will hope to extend their one-point lead over the side from Enschede when kick-off takes place at 21:00 on Saturday.

As for the hoped-for result on Saturday, Ajax can take inspiration from the away match against FC Twente earlier this season. On October 26, 2025, the Amsterdam-based team won 2-3 in Enschede. Ajax then turned a 1-0 deficit into a 1-3 lead in quick succession. Wout Weghorst, Oscar Gloukh and Mika Godts scored at De Grolsch Veste. García will certainly welcome another win over Twente with enthusiasm.
Ajax host FC Twente on Saturday from 21:00 at the Johan Cruijff ArenA.
