Young Boys vs Ajax Predictions

• Young Boys have failed to win any of their last five fixtures.
• Ajax have won 15 of their last 16 games in all competitions

Ajax too strong for Young Boys

In what had been billed as a tricky tie, Ajax cruised past Young Boys in last week’s Last 16 first-leg skirmish in Amsterdam to build a 3-0 lead that should ensure their second encounter with the Swiss outfit is a formality on Thursday.

The Dutch giants mustered a whopping 21 attempts to Young Boys’ one at the Johan Cruijff ArenA during an utterly dominant display, and Ajax’s superior class should tell again when the teams reconvene for the second-leg in Switzerland.

Young Boys are without a victory in their last five attempts in all competitions, and with the tie virtually over already, manager Gerardo Seoane could even be tempted to rest some of his better players with an eye on more pressing domestic matters.

Even with the hosts at full strength, Ajax are worth backing to win in Switzerland on Thursday at the prices on offer, and our 2-0 correct score prediction tips de Godenzonen to keep a second clean sheet inside the space of seven days against their inferior Last 16 opponents.
