Ajax vs Inter Prediction & Tips
The Amsterdam side returns to the Champions League group stage after three years, securing direct qualification thanks to their second-place finish in the Eredivisie. Their best performance in the 21st century remains the semi-final of the 2018/19 season, but in recent years their results have been modest: five defeats in their last seven games and poor statistics against Italian teams. John Heitinga’s side try to compensate for their defensive instability with an active attacking game, which often leads to high-scoring matches.
Inter start the Champions League as last season’s runners-up, although the heavy defeat to PSG (0-5) was a painful blow. The team is entering the group stage for the eighth consecutive year and rarely loses to Dutch opponents: 13 unbeaten matches prove it. Despite their status, the Milanese have not won their last four Champions League matches in regulation time, conceding 13 goals in that stretch.
