Betting suggestion:

The team of Sturm Graz will have to run very much in this game to be able to reverse the result that suffered in the first match, therefore they will have to enter the field with much disposition. The away team know that this will be a tricky game, but they have a good advantage in their favor and hope to manage the result well. This should be a very busy game because the locals will have to leave for the attack, so they can give space to the away team, soon we can have a game with good chances of goals. Our betting alternative will be for both teams to score at least one goal each until the final whistle.

Preview
Sturm Graz and Ajax meet at UPC‑Arena, in a 2nd leg match for the UEFA Champions League (2nd Qualifying Round). Ajax got a home win by (2‑0) in the previous 1st leg match.

Analysis Sturm

The home team comes to this 2nd leg match with a disadvantage of 2 goals, apart from the drawback of not having scored any away goals in the 1st leg. They come to this match after a home win against Hartberg by (3‑2). Sturm Graz has won 8 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 42 of the last 63 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

The fact of deciding the vacancy to the next phase is something very good, but the Sturm Graz arrives in an uncomfortable situation, as they suffered a defeat by 2-0 and ended up becoming quite complicated. The team must win by three or more goals of difference to stay alive, but let's face it, it's a very difficult thing, after all, they will face a very traditional opponent. However, they will not want to give up and will certainly fight until the end of the game to reach a score that is necessary, so they will try to impose themselves on the field and not give spaces to the opponent, after all, this increases the probability of a victory.

Confirmed Lineup: Jörg Siebenhandl, Fabian Koch, Filipe Ferreira, Lukas Spendlhofer, Dario Marešić, Markus Lackner, Peter Žulj, Sandi Lovrić, Stefan Hierländer, Emeka Eze, Philipp Hosiner.
Coach: J. Säumel.

Analysis Ajax

The away team comes to this 2nd leg match with an advantage of 2 goals, but has suffered 0 goals at home in the 1st leg. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got a home loss against Konyaspor by (0‑1). In the last 10 away matches Ajax has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches.

We can not deny that Ajax is the favorite to pass the stage, first by their tradition and secondly by the good victory they achieved in the previous match, after all now they can lose by one goal difference or even two as long as they score goals. Of course they need to be careful, after all they will enter the field already with the advantage, but neither will they need to act only defensively, that is, they should assimilate well the course of the match, knowing how to press at the right moments and counterattack hard when they have opportunity.

Confirmed Lineup: André Onana, Noussair Mazraoui, Nicolás Tagliafico, Matthijs De Ligt, Frenkie de Jong, Lasse Schöne, Carel Eiting, Hakim Ziyech, Dušan Tadić, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, David Neres.
Coach: F. Farioli.
