Ajax hosts Panathinaikos in a rematch of their UEFA Europa League qualifiers. Lancers are posting wins but aren’t looking that confident, while Panathinaikos hopes to make a sensation in Amsterdam.
Before Betting on Ajax vs. Panathinaikos UEFA Europa League
Counting the preseason, Ajax has eight straight victories, so that’s something that needs to be respected. After beating Vojvodina in the first qualifiers round, 1-0 at home and 1-3 on the road, they were better than Panathinaikos, 0-1 in Athens.
The Lancers have opened the Dutch Eredivisie with a minimal victory over Heerenveen at home, 1-0. Four-time European champions didn’t thrill anyone, with them being utterly pale during all 90 minutes. Overall, Ajax’s team quality is still doubtful, and they have a lot to prove in the coming days.
PAO was furious against Botev Plovdiv, winning 2-1 at home and then trashing the Bulgarian unit 0-4 on the road, showing all of its offensive talent. However, we haven’t seen anything of that against Ajax.
Despite their efforts, the Greek team couldn’t capitalize on their chances. When looking at the entire picture, it could be argued that PAO didn’t deserve to lose. However, in European matches, especially against big opponents, even the slightest mistake can be costly.
Ajax vs. Panathinaikos Head to Head
The two sides have met in the 1971 Champions League finals at Wembley. Ajax was better, beating the Greeks 2-0 and winning the European title.

Ajax isn’t displaying some particular great football, but they are posting good results. PAO has to attack and be aggressive due to the current result. The Greeks are in a position where they have to chase the result, and because of that, we predict high efficiency here, with at least three goals involved. The odds for this are solid.
