Ajax Preview – Can Ajax win eight on trot?
Thursday’s 1st leg hosts, Ajax, will be seeking an eighth win on the trot in all competitions when they play host to Roma in this Europa League quarter-final tie which also includes home and away wins over Swiss outfit, Young Boys, in the previous round.
Ajax are perhaps one of the dark horses to lift this season’s Europa League title and the hosts have certainly been in impressive form for some times as the Dutch club are now unbeaten in their last 24 matches in all competitions.
This impressive sequence of results includes 21 wins while home games in the Europa League have seen Ajax win 10 of their last 12 ties.
Roma Preview – Can Roma lift their game?
Roma head into this important 1st leg of this Europa League tie against Ajax having managed to win just one of their last four matches in all competitions which was gained in a 2-1 win away from home at Shakhtar Donetsk in the previous round of this competition.
However, defeats in the domestic Serie A against Parma and Napoli along with a disappointing 2-2 draw away at Sassuolo by no means guarantees a 1st leg lead for the Italian outfit here.
Roma have won four of their last five away ties in the Europa League though and they’ll be hoping that they can continue this run in Amsterdam on Thursday night.
