Ajax vs Sion Preview

Ajax arrive at the Johan Cruijff Arena brimming with confidence after a dominant first leg that ended 4-2 in their favour. Míchel Sánchez's side have been in superb shape, winning four of their last five matches and staying unbeaten across 12 consecutive fixtures. Their attacking output in the Conference League has been remarkable, and a full week of rest following a postponed league fixture gives them fresh legs for this second leg.

Sion face a daunting task in Amsterdam, needing at least three goals to overturn the aggregate deficit. Didier Tholot's men have struggled on the road in European competition, going winless in six consecutive away matches and failing to score in half of them. Their recent form offers little encouragement either, with just one win from the last five outings. The two goals scored in the first leg showed fight, but replicating that against a rested Ajax side looks improbable.

Ajax's home win at 1.40 is the cornerstone pick here. The Dutch side have won four of their last five matches, and their European home record is formidable. Sion have not won any of their last six European away fixtures, failing to score in half of them. Overturning a two-goal deficit in Amsterdam looks beyond this Swiss side.

Over 2.5 goals at N/A carries strong appeal. Ajax averaged 3.4 goals per Conference League outing, and the first leg produced six goals between these teams. Sion showed they can find the net, but that attacking intent should leave gaps for a prolific Ajax attack to exploit repeatedly.

Both teams to score at 1.02 rounds out the selections. Sion need at least three goals to progress, so Didier Tholot's side will push forward from the start. That desperation creates openings at both ends. Ajax's 4-3-3 system thrives on fast transitions against exposed defences, making goals at each end a realistic outcome. Odds correct at time of publication.

Trends to Know about Ajax vs Sion

• Ajax unbeaten across last 12 matches
• Sion winless in six European aways
• Ajax average 3.4 goals per game

Ajax line up in a 4-3-3 against Sion's 4-2-3-1, a shape battle that puts Julian Brandt and Davy Klaassen at the heart of Amsterdam's midfield control. The hosts will look to exploit wide channels through Berghuis and Gloukh, pressing Sion's double pivot early and often.

For Sion, the compact 4-2-3-1 is built to absorb pressure and transition quickly, with Ylyas Chouaref as the creative outlet behind the lone striker. Both lineups carry a probable tag drawn from multiple credible sources, so the tactical picture is reasonably clear heading into this Conference League play-off second leg.
