The Europa League match between Ajax and Brighton features as Bettingpro.com.au’s best bet for Thursday November 9.
Bet Of The Day November 9 – read on below for our reasoning behind today’s best bet.
Key Points
- Ajax have won their last two games since John van’t Schip took over as manager
- Both of those wins for Ajax came at home
- Ajax coming off 4-1 home win over Heerenveen
- Brighton have won just two of their last 10 games in all competitions
- Brighton have drawn four of their last six outings
We’re off to the Europa League for today’s best bet as Ajax and Brighton square off in Group B action, with both teams trying to move into the top two.
Ajax have endured a nightmare start to the season and were anchored to the bottom of the ladder in the Eredivisie ladder not so long ago.
However, since appointing new manager John van’t Schip, Ajax have turned a corner and come into this encounter having won back-to-back games against Volendam (2-0) and Heerenveen (4-1).
Both of those victories came at home and now Ajax have the opportunity to make it three home wins in a row for the first time in 2023.
We don’t mind an Ajax H2H win at odds of $4.75, but we’ll play it safer and back the Dutch side in the double chance market at $2.05.
Brighton aren’t the same team from last season and have been struggling juggling European football for the first time with their domestic season.
Indeed, Brighton have only won two of their last 10 matches in all competitions and come into this showdown on the back of consecutive 1-1 draws with lowly Fulham and Everton in the Premier League.
All up, Brighton have drawn four of their last six fixtures, so another share of the spoils could easily be on the cards in Amsterdam.
