Juventus v Ajax Betting Tips: Can Ajax really do it again?

Odds and preview ahead of Champions League clash

A Champions League semi-final is on the line in Turin tonight with the tie poised at one-apiece.

Juventus were outplayed for much of the first-leg in Amsterdam, but they showed in the last round against Atletico Madrid that they are a different beast at home.

But Ajax will take heart from their last-sixteen win over Real Madrid and simply can’t be ruled out.

Head-to-Head

David Neres cancelled out a first-half effort from Cristiano Ronaldo in the first-leg to leave the tie at 1-1.

The pair’s last meeting came in the Europa League knock-outs back in 2010. After a 0-0 draw in Turin, Juventus striker Amauri scored a brace as the Italian side went through 2-1 on aggregate.

Will Juve do the business in the Netherlands again?

Likely XIs

Juventus: Szczesny; Cancelo, Bonucci, Rugani, Sandro; Bentancur, Pjanic, Matuidi, Bernadeschi, Mandzukic, Ronaldo

Ajax: Onana; Veltman, De Ligt, Blind, Sinkgraven; De Jong, Schone, Ziyech, Van de Beek, Neres, Tadic

All the pre-match talk has been around the availability of Ajax lynchpin Frenkie de Jong. The 21-year-old suffered a midweek hamstring scare but will be desperate to make the starting line-up.

Nicolas Tagliafico will miss the game through suspension, so Erik ten Hag will have to decide if he fields Noussair Mazraoui or Daley Sinkgraven at full-back.
