Ajax vs Sion - Prediction & Match Preview

Ajax return to the Johan Cruijff ArenA for the second leg of the UEFA Conference League playoff against Sion with a commanding advantage from the first meeting. A 4-2 victory in Switzerland provided an excellent foundation, with all four Ajax goals arriving after the break. Julian Brandt, Marcos Leonardo, Tolu Arokodare and Davy Klaassen all found the net, highlighting the attacking depth available to the Dutch side.

Home advantage should provide another important factor for Ajax. Recent results include a 4-1 victory over Vojvodina and a 3-1 success against Shelbourne at the Johan Cruijff ArenA, while the current Ajax side has shown considerable attacking quality during the early European campaign. Strong possession numbers, high shot volume and consistent goal production create a favourable setup for another positive result.

Sion have already demonstrated enough attacking ability to create problems, with two goals scored against Ajax in the first leg. However, defensive weaknesses remain a concern, particularly against an Ajax attack capable of exploiting spaces and maintaining pressure for long periods. Sion have conceded two or more goals in three of the last five matches, while the first-leg performance produced 23 Ajax shots compared with 12 from Sion.

The goal market also looks attractive. The first meeting finished 4-2, while statistical trends point towards another match with at least two goals. Ajax and Sion have recorded strong Over 1.5 goal percentages in recent matches, with the available data showing 95% for the combined sample. The attacking approach of both teams provides further support for a game capable of reaching the required total.

Ajax remain the clear favourite to control the second leg and secure another victory in Amsterdam. The first-leg advantage, stronger squad quality, home support and attacking form all point towards another Ajax success.
