With both Central Defenders suspended, ETH slots in Dest at RB and moves Mazraoui to MF in place of Martinez who moves to CB. Let's hope Dest defends better than on the weekend!
Let's hope Ajax score four goals for the sixth straight game so that Dest's defending doesn't matter.
Lang came in for Labyard (knee injury) just before HT. Alvarez came in for Mazraoui (yellow card, physical issue?) to start the second half. Ziyech (arm injury?) replaced @ 85' by de Jong.
Lille 0-2 Ajax full time. A great result, though not decisive for group placement. Assuming in their final game that home Chelsea defeat visiting Lille, then ... Ajax top the group with a home win over visiting Valencia Ajax finish second to Chelsea but advance with a draw Ajax drop to third and into Europa League with a loss
As long as Chelsea don’t shit the bed at home agains the worst team in the group, this Ajax/Valencia match will be awesome. So much riding on it. Glad Ajax is at home for it. Like the odds, but still going to be a real fight.
