Ajax vs Young Boys – Europa League Preview, Team News & Predicted Line-ups

The UEFA Europa League action kicks-off on Thursday at 5:55 pm as Ajax entertain Young Boys at the Johan Cruijff Arena in the first leg of their last-16 tie.

Since exiting the UEFA Champions League group stage in December 2020, the Lancers have gone unbeaten in 19 matches in all competitions (W16, D3).

Although widely considered as underdogs in this tie, Young Boys have enjoyed a stellar calendar year so far, avoiding defeat in all 13 competitive matches since the turn of 2021 (W9, D4).

Both teams will stake their claim for the Europa League quarter-finals berth after showcasing some eye-catching football in the previous knock-out round.
