Ajax moved level on points with Eredivisie leaders AZ Alkmaar with a 3-0 victory over fading NAC Breda.
The defeat was NAC's third in succession in the Eredivisie and they have shipped 11 goals without reply in a dismal run which has seen them slip to fourth.
Forward Dario Cvitanich broke the deadlock in the 27th minute and the match was effectively over soon after the interval.
NAC defender Kees Kwakman was given his marching orders after receiving two yellow cards in the space of four minutes with Luis Suarez then making it 2-0 from the penalty spot.
The Amsterdam outfit completed the scoring in the 64th minute with Rasmus Lindgren beating goalkeeper Jelle Ten Rouwelaar.
