Midtjylland vs Ajax Prediction & Betting tips
The assignment is clear to Ajax, when the team from Amsterdam will play against Midtjylland in Denmark on Tuesday evening. The men of Ten Hag have to win anyway to keep their Champions League dream alive. However, the home club also wants to grab its last straw, and will certainly not give up without a fight.
FC Midtjylland:
Midtjylland will make her debut in the Champions League this season. The Danes are getting acquainted with the laws of international top football, because with defeats against Atalanta (0-4) and Liverpool (2-0) they are still waiting for their first point and their first goal in the European after two group matches. champion ball. Still, after the loss at Anfield Road last week, Midtjylland could count on the compliments of Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp: ‘It is a team that really wants to play football and belongs at this level. Any team that has to play against Midtjylland will have a hard time, because it is a well-organized team. ‘
Nice words, although Midtjylland had a bad dress rehearsal last weekend by losing no less than 4-1 to Nordsjaelland in their own country. Trainer Brian Priske decided to give important players such as Paulinho, Sory Kaba, Awer Mabil, Frank Onyeka and Erik Sviatchenko a rest, but that turned out completely wrong. “So that defeat is on my account,” Priske said guiltily. ‘There will be a completely different Midtjylland against Ajax on Tuesday.’
Ajax:
Ajax only had one point left from its duels against Liverpool and Atalanta, which is actually far too little based on the game shown. The team from Amsterdam had actually earned at least one point against Liverpool, and last week at Atalanta they gave up a 0-2 lead. If Ajax wants to maneuver itself into a good starting position in this group, it will have to win both the upcoming two group matches away and at home against Midtjylland.
Ajax is obviously the favorite on Tuesday evening, but the team from Amsterdam in particular looks vulnerable in the back. Perr Schuurs and Daley Blind had their hands more than full with Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata last week, and also last weekend in the 4-2 victory over Eredivisie last-ditch Fortuna Sittard, the red and white instead of two goals against also just four goals for the ears. ‘We were sloppy against Fortuna Sittard due to a lack of concentration,’ says trainer Erik ten Hag. “That won’t happen to us on Tuesday night.”
Ajax has been hit hard by the corona virus. Andre Onana, Maarten Stekelenburg, Davy Klaassen, Zakaria Labyad, Dusan Tadic and Ryan Gravenberch will all be missing in Denmark, so that the team from Amsterdam has only 17 players at the airport. Kjell Scherpen is the only keeper, so if he retires, a field player will have to stand between the posts.
Scherpen, Schuurs, Mazraoui, Blind, Martinez, Tagliafico, Klaiber, Timber, Alvarez, Ekkelenkamp, Neres, Antony, Promes, Traore, Huntelaar, Brobbey, Jensen
