Team Analysis
The last two seasons have been a clear failure for Ajax – if in 2023 the team finished third in the Eredivisie, last year they had to settle for only fifth place. However, this season the Dutch club is slowly starting to regain its former form. Francesco Farioli's side is playing very effective football, winning almost every match and leading the domestic league table with an 8-point lead over their closest rival. However, things are not going as smoothly for Ajax in the Europa League. The Amsterdam team was on the verge of ending their trophy pursuit at the playoff stage. In the second leg against Union Saint-Gilloise, the team was down to ten men as early as the 25th minute, experiencing heavy pressure from the opponent (xG 1.70-4.29), but miraculously managed to hold on until extra time, where they secured victory thanks to a penalty in the 93rd minute (aggregate score 3-2). Regarding the upcoming clash, the coaching staff will be unable to count on 6 players, including Davy Klaassen (7+2, suspension) and Wout Weghorst (7+2, finger injury).

Lately, Eintracht has been indescribably terrible. Over a stretch of 7 matches, the team managed to secure only one victory, and that was at home against Holstein Kiel (3-1), who are almost the main contenders for relegation. Last weekend, the "Eagles," supported by their home fans, were unable to put up decent resistance against Bayer (1-4). As for the Europa League, Eintracht bypassed the playoff stage thanks to excellent results in the first six rounds, finishing the group stage in fifth position. In the upcoming match, the coaching staff will not be able to count on 5 players, but there are no significant losses. Omar Marmoush, who moved to Man City, can be considered such a loss. Without the Egyptian attacking leader, Eintracht has become noticeably weaker.

Goaloo Prediction
According to bookmakers, there is no clear favorite in the upcoming match. However, our editorial team completely disagrees with this view. Recently, the teams have shown entirely different results. While Ajax has secured 7 wins in their last 8 matches, Eintracht has achieved a positive result only once in their last 7 games. During this period, the Dutch club managed to defeat strong opponents such as Feyenoord (2-1) and Galatasaray (2-1). Secondly, Francesco Farioli's team is very strong at home. Since the start of the season, they have suffered only two defeats on their home ground – against Lazio (1-3), who showed fantastic results in the group stage, and Union Saint-Gilloise (1-2), where an early red card significantly influenced the game's scenario. Therefore, as the main betting option, we choose Ajax to win with a handicap (0). We expect to see a score of 2-0 on the scoreboard after 90 minutes.

Pick: Ajax Amsterdam Handicap (0)
