Ajax vs Liverpool: Storylines
Led again by their young stars, Ajax will look to make another splash in the continent this season. However, they know that going through the next round with Liverpool and Atlanta in the group is going to be an uphill battle.
Then again, the Dutch side are well-coached and have proven over and over that they’re capable of facing off vs. the giants of the continent, so Jurgen Klopp should be very careful when his team takes the pitch on Wednesday.
Liverpool have been stung by the injury bug lately and will be heavily undermanned for this clash, as Naby Keita, Thiago Alcántara, Alisson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and Joel Matip will be on the shelf, while Virgil Van Dijk is expected to miss most of the season after suffering an ACL injury vs. Everton.
The Reds feature plenty of firepower up front but playing without Van Dijk and Alisson will certainly take a toll on their title aspirations, as they’ve already conceded 13 goals through 5 Premier League games.
