- AFC Ajax are unbeaten in 3 of their last 4 home matches across all competitions.
- FK Vojvodina Novi Sad have a record of 2 wins and 2 losses in their last 4 away games across all competitions (W2, L2).
- Ajax have the home and psychological advantage after winning all 3 of the previous 3 H2Hs.
Vojvodina can be dangerous in transition and from set pieces
Dutch giants Ajax are a force to be reckoned with and will be eager to demonstrate that to FK Vojvodina in this second leg of the tie at Johan Cruijff ArenA on Thursday. The hosts have won their last two matches, beating Olympiakos Piraeus FC 1-0 at home in a friendly on Saturday and then tearing Vojvodina apart 4-1 away in the first leg of their UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 tie on Monday.
Ajax boss Michel has his men playing an open, possession-based, high-energy game and pressing from the front in order to launch fast breaks in the right way. The Dutch side are a dynamic unit in transition, but the visitors can also be dangerous, as they will be compact and narrow in a midblock structure and try to counter punch with the occasional break.
Vojvodina boss Miroslav Tanjga has been pragmatic in his set up of the team for this European encounter and will look to stifle the hosts while remaining in the game to pounce on their chances in counter attack, transition and from dead ball situations.
Ajax to win in style
Dutch champions are simply too slick and sharp to lose here and, although the visitors will have plenty of joy in spells due to their compact and disciplined structure, this should be a night of European football for the home crowd. Vojvodina have scored 3.00 goals per game in their 4 away games this season, while conceding 3.00 per game, so they are wild in the final third and vulnerable at the back.
Petar Sukacev is Vojvodina's main threat with 1 goal in 1 match in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026. Davy Klaassen is the in-form scorer of Ajax with 1 goal in 1 match in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 and the midfielders are going to be the difference on Thursday.
Ajax have won 3, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their last 5 across all competitions, but their home record is W2, D2 and L2 from 6, which should be better and is something that needs to be sharper. Vojvodina are on a mixed run of 2 wins and 3 defeats in their last 5 and that 4-0 home win over OFK Belgrade was right before the 4-1 reverse in Serbia.
The goal markets are lively in this fixture, with Over 2.5 goals at 47/100 and Both Teams To Score - Yes at 93/100 both catching the eye, but an Ajax win at 13/50 is the main selection for Thursday's game at Johan Cruijff ArenA, as the Dutch powerhouses should control this tie.
