Ajax v Vojvodina

Ajax vs Vojvodina Preview

Despite losing their first warm-up game of this season in a 1-0 loss at home to PEC Zwolle, Ajax have enjoyed themselves in their subsequent four club friendlies as the Dutch hosts have collected wins against Sint-Truiden 4-0, Rangers 2-1, Al Wasl 2-1 and Olympiakos 1-0 which the hosts will be hoping can inspire them to win this 1st leg tie, while Vojvodina began the new Serbian Super League in positive fashion, winning 3-1 away from home at Tekstilac Odzaci.

Ajax finished last season's Dutch top flight campaign in fifth place in the Eredivisie standings which secured a place in this season's 2nd qualifying round of the Europa League and having lost just twice in their last 14 games in all competitions, the hosts will be upbeat about their chances here on Thursday night.

Ajax have recorded eight wins within these last 14 games overall and goals also look likely as 11 of these 14 matches have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals being scored as well.

Frank Farioli's side will also be keen to improve upon results overall in the Europa League as the Dutch hosts have managed to collect just two wins in their last 12 ties overall which also includes slipping to six defeats in the process as well.

Vojvodina started their new Serbian top flight season in promising fashion as the visitors registered an impressive 3-1 win away from home at Tekstilac Odzaci which made it five wins on the trot overall for Bozidar Bandovic's side and they too will be in confident mood ahead of this 1st leg tie in the Netherlands.

Vojvodina had ended their previous Serbian top flight campaign with a 1-0 home win against Mladost Lucani which resulted in a fourth place finish in the Championship Round group and ultimately earned the visitors a spot in this 2nd qualifying round of the Europa League.

Results overall have also been pretty consistent for Vojvodina as the visitors have been dealt just three defeats within their last 23 games in all competitions with losses being handed to them by TSC, Cukaricki and Red Star Belgrade, the latter being in the final of the Serbian cup.

15 wins within these last 23 matches also give Vojvodina a decent chance of producing a positive result here on Thursday night at the Johan Cruijff Arena but the visitors have lost three of their last five ties overall in the Europa League, two of which were away from home with defeats at Ruzomberok and Standard Liege.
