Ajax vs Besiktas Predictions

• Ajax have won three of their last four matches
• The Dutch giants have won four of their five home games this season
• Besiktas have seen both teams score in five of their last six games

Ajax can make their mark

Ajax’s reputation certainly took a hit after their terrible start to last season, but the Dutch side have taken some steps forward in 2024. They’ve won three of their last four games and they navigated some tricky qualifiers to make the League Phase of the Europa League, which they enter on Thursday.

This clash with Besiktas is a tricky one, but the Turkish side look a little top-heavy and that could count against them in Amsterdam. The hosts have won four of their five home games so far this season, seeing off Fortuna Sittard in a 5-0 victory in their last outing at their own ground.

The Dutch giants will be eager to prove they’re on their way back to the top so back them to take all three points in this clash. A couple of fixture postponements have likely helped the hosts regroup after a busy summer of qualifiers, so back them to follow up their pair of wins against Besiktas from 2021 with a victory on Thursday.
