Barcelona vs. Ajax 21.10.2014 – Champions League betting tips

One of the most interesting matches of this Champions League series will be hold by Group D on Cam Nou between FC Barcelona and Ajax Amsterdam, two teams which won 4 Champions League trophy! Barcelona thinks more of the match that will have to play Sunday against Real Madrid, so they need to preserve their energy for that match, so Luis Enrique will probably manage the base players. Ajax will try to profit and win the match even though they didn’t win anything in the previous stages. Barcelona and Ajax met before in the Group stages in the previous season of Champions League, when Barcelona won with 4-0 on Camp Nou, while Ajax won on Amsterdam Arena with 2-1.

Barcelona suffered her first failure under Luis Enrique, 2-3 against PSG and now they are on the second place in this group with 3 points. These 3 goals were the first for Barcelona to receive this season, goalkeeper Marc Ter Stegen being criticized after the match in Paris. This we’ll be the final match when Luis Suarez can’t perform because he was suspended, but he will play against Real Madrid on Sunday. Luis Enrique can’t count for this game on Adriano, Vermaelen and Douglas, all three having medical problems. In return we’ll see Rafinha, the one announced to play in the first eleven by Iberian press, especially because an important part of the first eleven will be left on the bench in order to be fully apt to play against Real Madrid on Saturday.

Ajax managed to obtain just a score draw at Nicosia against APOEL (1-1) in a match in which they had 60% ball possession and missed a lot of important goal occasions. They rank 3 in this group, after the two score draw and they hope to make a good match against Barcelona and PSG. Holland’s champions don’t have a really good period, having 3 consecutive score draws and ranking only second in Eredivise. Club’s official site announces that coach Frank De Boer called 19 players for this match, except Viktor Fischer, Nicolai Boilesen and Thulani Serero, all being injured. Queensy Menig (18 years old) and Jairo Riedewald (19 years old) are the surprises prepared by Del Boer for this match on Camp Nou, both being players of the second team of the Club.

Our tip suggestions

• No goal between: 00-14:59

  It seems that Barcelona don’t consider this game to be a pretty important one, because Saturday they will play against Real Madrid, and this is all they can think of right now. Luis Enrique will try to play with other players beside the first 11, which will be left on the bench to prevent them from injure and be fully apt to play Saturday. Barca scored 15 out of the last 23 goals in this season in the second half, like it happened in the victory obtained against Eibar three days ago. Barcelona scored only one time in the first 15 minutes this season, in the match that they lost, against PSG in Champions League. The last 5 matches played by Ajax were without goal in first 15 minutes, so based on this we believe that today we’ll see goals just after the first 15 minutes of play.

  Odds: 1,50
  Chance: 9/10
