Arsenal Women vs Ajax Women Prediction

Arsenal have more pedigree on the continent and are expected to book their passage into the group stage. The Gunners come into the game in fine form, having won five matches on the bounce, but Ajax could complicate matters if given the opportunity.

Suzanne Bakker's side might be more cautious in their approach to the game due to the superior quality available to their hosts. However, Arsenal should do enough to claim a comfortable victory.

Prediction: Arsenal 2-0 Ajax
