These predictions below for the Brighton and Hove Albion vs Ajax Europa League group stage clash were made by Bookmaker Ratings. For more predictions on the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, La Liga and other European football leagues, visit our Football Predictions & Betting Tips page.
For the Brighton vs Ajax prediction, we say Brighton will win 4-0, and this is why. Ajax are experiencing one of their worst starts in their history this season, and facing a Brighton side that is nearly unbeatable at home means their poor form is likely to be extended.
Prediction: Brighton 4-0 Ajax
We predict over 2.5 goals on Brighton vs Ajax and this is why. Brighton are a superb goalscoring side, and four of their last five games produced over 2.5 goals and Ajax are also scoring and conceding goals, and their last game at Utrecht ended with over 2.5 goals.
Betting Tip: Over 2.5 goals
Brighton will head into the game against Ajax coming off a 2-1 defeat to Manchester City on the road in the Premier League and will obviously demand a response. On their current form, they are winless in their last five matches, having lost three and drawn two in all competitions.
Ajax are in similar poor form, although they put out a goalscoring performance last time out against Utretch. They will want to get their first win in the Europa League group stage against Brighton, but their form speaks otherwise. They lost three times and drew twice in their last five matches, including their 4-3 defeat against Utretch.
Predicted Starting Lineups
Brighton: Steele, March, Igor, Dunk, Milner, Grob, Adingra, Gilmour, Pedro, Mitoma, Ferguson
Ajax: Ramaj, Sosa, Hato, Sutalo, Gaaei, Taylor, Tahirovic, Hlynsson, Bergwijn, Brobbey, Forbs
