Slavia Prague

Current Form

In the Czech league, Jindrich Trpisovsky's team is living up to its title favorite status, leading the table just three points ahead of second-placed Sparta. In the Europa League, the Reds kicked off their campaign with a strong away victory, defeating Ludogorets 2-0.

Projected Lineup: Kinski – Holesh, Zima, Boril – Vallem, Dorly, Zafeiris, Diouf – Jurasek, Hory, Provod.

Ajax

Current Form
Ajax has had a rocky start to the season and it seems unlikely that Francesco Farioli's squad is ready to compete for the title just yet. Sitting in fifth place reflects poorly on their ambitions. However, the Amsterdam side has played a few matches fewer than their table rivals which creates an opportunity to climb higher soon. In the Europa League, Ajax began with an impressive 4-0 victory against Besiktas.

2.05Tip and bets
Slavia is in outstanding form, playing an attacking style of football and scoring consistently - in each of their last six matches, the Red-Whites have found the net at least twice. It’s clear that today the hosts will be aggressive on the attack, and it's unlikely that Ajax's shaky defense will perform reliably in Prague. Meanwhile, the Amsterdammers are also attacking-minded and have no trouble scoring goals, suggesting that this match will likely be high-scoring.
We believe the match will be high-scoring. Our prediction is over three goals. This bet is offered at a coefficient of 2.39.
Match Outcome Bet
Ajax has shown inconsistency, alternating between impressive performances and disappointing displays. However, their recent 4-0 victory over Besiktas demands attention. On the other hand, Slavia has built significant momentum that even Ajax may struggle to halt, particularly at home where the Red and Whites are formidable and capable of securing maximum points.
Bet recommendation – Slavia to win. This wager is available at 1.95
Corners Bet
At home, Slavia is expected to spend considerable time on the attack, but Ajax can also respond, leading to a likely high number of corners.
