Latest pre-match information for Ajax vs Jagiellonia
With the De Klassieker match between Ajax and Feyenoord approaching on Sunday, Francesco Farioli may rotate his squad for the second leg. New signing Daniele Rugani, who recently joined on loan from Juventus, could be included in the defensive line.
Brian Brobbey, Bertrand Traore, and Branco van den Boomen are likely to start, while the return of young player Kian Fitz-Jim remains uncertain.
Two experienced players, goalkeeper Remko Pasveer and captain Jordan Henderson, are likely to be retained. Pasveer performed excellently in the match against Panathinaikos, saving five penalties, while Henderson is a key player for the team.
Jesus Imaz, captain of Jagiellonia, led the team to three goals in the European qualifiers and will partner with either Lamine Diaby-Fadiga or Afimico Pululu in attack.
Pululu, who scored in the defeat against Katowice, hopes that will earn him a European starting spot after being benched last week. Midfielder Damian Wojdakowski remains sidelined with a long-term anterior cruciate ligament injury, but the visitors can choose from the rest of their squad in preparation for the match.
Latest predicted lineups for Ajax vs Jagiellonia
Ajax: Pasveer; Rensch, Sutalo, Rugani, Hato; Taylor, Henderson, Van den Boomen; Traore, Brobbey, Godts
Jagiellonian Bialystok: Abramowicz; Sacek, Skrzpczak, Dieguez, Moutinho; Marczuk, Nene, Romanczuk, Churlinov; Imaz; Pululu
Latest Ajax vs Jagiellonian football match prediction
Shocked by conceding a fifth-minute goal in Poland last Thursday, Ajax responded strongly by scoring two goals before the end of the first half and taking control of the first leg. Chuba Akpom completed his hat-trick in the second half at Stadion Miejski, helping the Amsterdam side secure a convincing 4-1 victory after having already advanced through two rounds to the playoffs. Ajax needed 34 penalties in a dramatic shootout to overcome Panathinaikos, after eliminating Vojvodina with a 4-1 win in the second qualifying round, starting the new season with four consecutive wins for the first time in two decades.
New coach Francesco Farioli, who arrived after a disappointing 2023-24 season in which Ajax finished far behind Eredivisie champions PSV Eindhoven and were dragged into the relegation zone, is gradually stabilizing the team. Although his team lost their last league match, Ajax are now hoping to secure a place in the Europa League. Despite a 1-2 defeat to NAC Breda, Ajax will continue their European campaign hoping to qualify for the Europa League group stage, having almost certainly overcome Jagiellonian Stadium last week.
Jagiellonia, after winning their first Polish league title, began their continental campaign this summer in the Champions League qualifiers, but ultimately lost 1-5 to Norway's Bodo/Glimt. Adrian Siemieniec's side started their domestic title defense with three wins from three matches, but the European failure led to a run of five consecutive defeats across all competitions, including a 1-3 loss to GKS Katowice in their most recent game.
With around 16 goals conceded in that run, Jagiellonia's priority on Thursday will be keeping their defense solid. Ajax may be saving some energy for the Klassieker on Sunday, but regardless of changes to the lineup, Ajax should still overcome a struggling and unconfident Jagiellonia.
