We predict Chelsea Women to win 2-1. Ajax Women may be on an 8-match winning streak across all competitions, but their squad is not as strong as Chelsea Women’s, and as a result, we expect them to succumb to a narrow defeat to the Blues.
There’s a chance Ajax W vs Chelsea W will end with over 2.5 goals. Eight of Ajax Women’s last ten matches ended with over 2.5 goals, while six of Chelsea Women’s last ten matches ended with over 2.5 goals.
