Two teams that shouldn’t miss out on the Europa League knockout stage, but will need to secure a spot in the top 8 for direct qualification.
After 8 consecutive home wins, Ajax were held to a draw against Utrecht, preventing them from overtaking this team into 2nd place. In the Europa League, they have collected 10 points from 5 matches so far - a solid performance that places them at the top of the group standings.
Lazio are one of the three best teams in the Europa League so far this season, alongside Athletic Bilbao and Eintracht Frankfurt. With 4 wins and 1 draw from 5 matches, Lazio’s strong form has come during a successful stretch in Serie A as well, putting the Roman club in excellent shape this part of the season.
Ajax vs Lazio Pick: OVER 2.5 GOALS
In their 5 Europa League matches so far, a total of 16 goals have been scored in Ajax's games, while 13 goals have been scored in Lazio's matches. In the last three games involving Ajax, at least 3 goals were recorded each time, and this clash is expected to follow a similar pattern given both teams' strong attacking styles and fast-paced gameplay.
Lazio will almost certainly respond with an attacking approach to counter Ajax's offensive style, so we can expect at least 3 goals over the course of the entire match.

Tahirovic will not play in this match due to injury while Wijndal is suspended due to a booking. Avila and Rijkoff are questionable for this match due to knee injuries.
