UEFA Europa League
RFS Riga, a debutant in the groups, needs only a victory to keep some chances for advancing. However, it is unlikely to achieve this, as they have not yet won any of their six matches played so far. Nevertheless, they have shown that they should not be underestimated in some of them, aiming here at the two draws of the team, which were at home against Anderlecht and Galatasaray.
Ajax started to remind of themselves and came just one point away from the top in the Netherlands. In the Europa League, they started strong, but lost their last two matches against Lazio and Real Sociedad. However, they need to return to winning ways if they want to continue forward, as they have real chances to finish in the top eight and advance directly to the round of 16.
Prediction: a victory for Ajax and over 1.5 goalsAjax needs a victory against one of the underdogs, which in theory will end the chances of progress for the hosts, who have nothing to be ashamed of in their debut participation in the group stage, even though they will probably remain winless in it.
