Wednesday soccer picks from Miller: In Eredivisie, Willem II vs Ajax; In La Liga, Real Madrid vs Granada

Sean Miller

Real Madrid, Ajax, look to continue at the top of their leagues in Wednesday action

Which are the best teams in Spain and Netherlands?

You can make the case that it is Real Madrid in La Liga, while Ajax is pretty clearly the best in the Eredivisie.

Both are in action this week, as the two leagues play through the usual break at this time due to the condensed schedule for 2020-21.

Both are heavy favorites, and I will take both to cover the first half and game goal lines.
