Our Prediction for the Match: Ajax vs Jagiellonia
Ajax, one of the giants of European football, experienced a dip in form last season, finishing fifth in the Eredivisie. Despite this, they remain a formidable side, especially under the management of Francesco Farioli, who has gradually improved their performances.
Jagiellonia, on the other hand, is coming off a historic season in the Polish Ekstraklasa. However, their recent form has been poor, losing four consecutive matches, including a heavy defeat at home to Ajax in the first leg.
Ajax dominated the first leg in Białystok, with Chuba Akpom scoring a hat-trick in a 4-1 victory. Given their significant advantage and the fact that they are playing at home in Amsterdam, Ajax is expected to comfortably secure their place in the group stage of the Europa League.
