Liverpool – Ajax SOCCER PICKS

Liverpool and Ajax will play that first place at Anfield tomorrow.
If they won, the English would certify their presence in the round of 16, leaving Ajax 4 points behind, and they would play that first place with Atalanta on the last day. Therefore, the first “match ball” for Klopp’s men.

Until last week, they had made a perfect step through the group stage: all wins and 0 goals conceded. However, Atalanta managed to win at Anfield (0-2) and put the group quite tight: Liverpool (9 points), Ajax (7 points) and Atalanta (7 points). Despite this result, Liverpool have the goal-average in their favor after the 0-5 in Bergamo.

Despite the casualties and that it is not at its best, Liverpool is always dangerous. At home they had not lost a game for a long time until Atalanta’s visit, being the only game lost at home so far this season.

If we look at the meetings of the Dutch, the defeat at home against Liverpool is the only one, taking into account that Atalanta has not been there and the difference between the Eredivisie and the Premier League. In addition, in his visit to Atalana he already showed what he is capable of: he went 0-2 at half-time and then saw how the Italians would tie the game in 5 minutes and had chances to take the victory.

To take advantage of those “weak moments” of Ajax, I believe that Liverpool would have a good chance of winning, taking into account that they would certify their pass to the second round with many ballots to be first in the group.
