Ajax vs Jagiellonia Prediction: 29/8/2024

Ajax has been in outstanding form at home, winning 15 of their last 18 matches in top-flight competitions. In stark contrast, Jagiellonia has struggled significantly in their recent Europa League away games, losing eight of their last ten and managing just one win in their last 18 away outings at this level.

Jagiellonia’s matches have frequently been high-scoring affairs, with 20 of their last 21 league games featuring over 2.5 goals. Ajax has shown similar consistency, having gone 30 matches without a 0-0 draw, demonstrating their ability to both score and concede goals regularly.

In the Europa League, Ajax has consistently both scored and conceded in each of their last 13 matches, a trend mirrored by Jagiellonia, who have done the same in 13 of their last 15 away games. Given this, it’s unlikely that either goalkeeper will keep a clean sheet in their upcoming encounter.

 

Prediction

Despite the relatively low goal tally of 12 across Ajax’s seven top-flight matches this season, none have ended without a goal. Similarly, Jagiellonia has seen goals scored in each of their last 12 games at this level. Therefore, another match with goals on both sides seems likely.

Prediction: Ajax 3 : 1 Jagiellonia
