Tottenham v Ajax Betting Tips [1 May 2019]
The match
All eyes would have been on a Manchester City vs Juventus clash in the Champions League semi-final, but Tottenham Hotspur and Ajax swept aside City and Juventus respectively to set up a last four clash. The first leg will be played at the new Tottenham Stadium, where Spurs have lost 1-0 last weekend against West Ham United. With their eyes set on the big prize, Mauricio Pochettino’s men would like to make it a good start in this clash. The loss to West Ham was Spurs’ first in ten matches (W8, D1, L1) played at home in all competitions. Even in the Champions League this season, Tottenham have managed four wins out of five – their last four matches, three of those with clean sheets. Ajax won’t be a pushover, as the Dutch giants have surprised everyone with their Champions League run. They have won 4-2 over Vitesse in the Dutch Eredivisie in their last match, making it four straight wins and no losses in eight fixtures (W7, D1) in all competitions. Even in the Champions League, Ajax have managed just one loss this season (W9, D6, L1) including the qualifiers. With nearly a two-week resting period between matches, the visitors start as slightly favourites.
Key Statistics
- Tottenham Hotspur have seen a clean sheet on either side in six of their last seven competitive matches.
- Ajax are unbeaten in 17 of their last 18 Champions League matches.
- Ajax have scored a goal in seven of their last eight Champions League away matches.
The bet of our experts
Will Ajax continue their giant-killing spree? The Dutch giants have surprised everyone with their stupendous run and could surprise Tottenham also. The hosts are a bit stretched with injuries and that could play a part in the result. Backing the visitors to qualify is no longer a surprise pick. For the first leg, though, we are backing the two teams to find the net.
