Ludogorets vs Ajax Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Daniel Ngulu in Europa League Predictions
Bulgarian champions Ludogorets will host Dutch giants Ajax in the Europa League playoffs, seeking to secure a group stage slot. The two meet at the Huvepharma Arena in the first leg of this tie. Ludogorets are here following their elimination from the Champions League qualifiers. They have already seen off one opponent in the earlier round of the Europa League, beating Kazakhstani side Astana. Coming into this game, Ludogorets lost to Cherno More in their local league. That was their second loss in four matches and the first time they failed to score in five matches. Meanwhile, they have two clean sheets in the last five matches. Their 5-1 win over Astana in the last round ended a run of three straight losses in Europa League. However, they’ve done well at home in this competition. In the last five home matches in Europa League, they have four wins. Ludogorets have one loss in six matches at home in this competition.
Ajax are in this competition courtesy of having finished third in their domestic league. They will want to have a better season this time than they managed last season. Coming into this game their run hasn’t been the best though. They started with a 4-1 win over Heracles. However, in their most recent outing, they drew 2-2 with Excelsior. They scored first but trailed 2-1 before Davy Klaassen saved them with a 72md minute equalizer. In their last five competitive matches, Ajax haven't managed a clean sheet. Their preseason run wasn’t stable either and it is safe to say they aren’t at their best. In four straight Europa League games, Ajax have no win, and two losses. The Dutch giants have conceded two or more in two of five matches in Europa League. In 12 away matches in Europa League, they have just two wins to show.
