Command Analysis

RFS

Current form
RFS is not playing its best in the Europa League and is one of the five teams that have not won a single match. But don't rush to conclusions. The mere fact that the Latvian club got into the main draw of the second most important European Cup tournament is already considered a huge achievement. At the same time, let not forget that the team has not lost to Anderlecht (1:1) and Galatasaray (2:2) in front of local fans. That is why we would not say with 100% certainty that the team will definitely lose to the upcoming opponent.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kigurs and Diomande will not take to the field due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Over the last four matches, the RFS has alternated victories and defeats
- The hosts have conceded in the last four games
Estimated line-up: Ondoa - Njie, Prenga, Lipuschek - Savalnieks, Zelenkov, Markhiev, Panic, Odisharia - Ikaunieks, Kaudio.

Ajax

Current form
There is no doubt that Ajax will reach the playoff round, but it remains a mystery whether the club will get straight to the 1/8 or will have to settle for the 1/16. The team is currently in tenth place, lagging behind the eighth line by only one point. A victory in the upcoming match will significantly improve its position in the ranking and, under certain circumstances, break into the top eight.
Francesco Farioli men have a busy schedule. Only three weeks have passed in 2025, and Ajax have already played four matches, won two of them, lost once and tied once.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dongen, Tahirovic and Veindal are injured, and Hato will not appear on the field due to an excess of yellow cards.
Interesting trends for betting
- Ajax have managed to score in nine of their last ten matches
- The visitors have conceded in three of their last four matches
Probable line-up: Pasver - Wrench, Shutalo, Baas, Goei - Berghuis, Henderson, Taylor - Godts, Brobbey, Traore.

1.75Tip and bets
With all due respect to RFS, Ajax is superior to them in terms of gameplay in all respects. As a rule, the Dutch club usually has no problems with teams that are significantly lower in game class. Confident victories in four of the last five matches over such opponents as Heerenveen, Sparta and Telstar with a score of 2:0, as well as over Almere City - 3:0, indicate that Francesco Farioli protégé will be able to win against the Riga team no less confidently.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Ajax with odds of 1.97
Bet on total
In two of the last three defeats on their home field, RFS failed to score against teams such as Malmö and PAOK. The upcoming opponent is even more dangerous in terms of play, so it is unlikely that the Riga team will please their fans with a goal.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 2.01
Bet on corners
If Ajax gives at least 70 percent of their real capabilities, they will be able to win the match not only by the score, but also by other indicators.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) corners on Ajax with odds of 1.55
