Liverpool – Ajax

English club can pick up their first win in the Champions League

Liverpool have yet to solve their problems. Jurgen Klopp's side continue to perform extremely poorly at the start of the season. The last season's Champions League finalist may not even make the playoffs. Previously, Liverpool lost on all counts to Napoli and will now take on a tough Ajax. In the AFL, the Reds are also unimpressive. A lot of important points have been lost at the start of the season. There are big questions about Liverpool's defence. The defenders make a lot of mistakes. Surely the Ajax players will do everything they can to create goalscoring chances. Ajax are looking good on all fronts. In the Dutch league, the team have been winning match after match, and those wins have been very convincing. In the Champions League, the club started just as well - in the first round, they beat Rangers 4-0. In general, Ajax have a streak of five straight wins. How will the Dutch side fare at Anfield? The bookmakers put Liverpool as the clear favourite, and the odds are very high - 5.75 to win for Ajax. The teams have played four matches between them, with two Liverpool wins, one Ajax win and one draw. The statistics of head-to-head encounters in England include a win for the home team (1-0) and a draw (2-2). It is also worth noting that Liverpool have never lost to a Dutch team at home. Yes, Liverpool are off to a bad start to the season. The team are regularly losing points in the AFL, and not to the strongest of opponents. After six rounds, the Reds are 7th in the table. Nobody has forgotten their defeat to Napoli in the first leg of the competition. However, Klopp's men must break their losing streak. The game will take place at Anfield. The fans will be rooting for Liverpool. The home side have no margin for error. Should the Reds fail to secure the three points, they risk missing out on the group stage. This scenario is unrealistic for the Liverpool management and the fans. It will be an intense game. The spectators will not be bored. Both teams are capable of scoring and will be focused on attacking from the start. Liverpool have nowhere to retreat. The bookmakers' selections are fair and square. Klopp's charges will delight their fans and are sure to score at least one more goal than their opponent. We should bet on a Liverpool win.
