The ball will roll for another Champions League match, the second round of the group stage. This Tuesday, Liverpool, current runners-up, face Ajax, in England, for Group A. The ball rolls at 16:00 (Brasília time), at Anfield Road.
After being thrashed in their debut for Napoli, away from home, by 4-1, Liverpool know that a victory is essential this Tuesday, playing in front of their fans. Jürgen Klopp’s team, however, will have some absences that can hinder the team’s assembly. They are: Konaté, Henderson, Jones, Ramsay, Keïta, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Robertson and Kelleher.
Even after losing important names in the transfer window, such as Antony, Haller and Licha Martínez, in addition to coach Erik ten Hag, the Dutch team started the competition well. At home, the Dutch beat Rangers 4-0. Ajax has no absences for the next match.
Liverpool vs Ajax retrospective
According to the website oGol, the teams have already faced each other four times in history. In this way, Liverpool have the advantage in retrospect with two wins, against one of Ajax. In addition, there was another game that ended in a draw. The last clash between the teams ended 1-0 for the Reds, in the group stage of the Premier League 2020/21.
Both teams score: yes
In addition, the expectation is for a game with many goals. Namely, Liverpool and Ajax don’t have that good defenses at the moment. So both teams must score.
Goals in the match: over 3.5
The best guess in this game is a 2-2 draw between Liverpool and Ajax. Thus, the number of goals must be greater than 2.5.
