Previous match
This is the reverse fixture of matchday three where Chelsea got a late Michy Batshuayi winner in the Amsterdam Arena. Group H is wide open with Chelsea, Valencia and Ajax all getting away victories against the other.
Chelsea
Chelsea have been in great form as of late and their best performance of the season was against Ajax in the previous fixture. Chelsea boss Frank Lampard will be expecting the same result and performance from his players at Stamford Bridge. Tammy Abraham is in excellent form for Chelsea this season; you can back him at odds of 10/11 to score at any time during the match.
Ajax
Last year’s semi-finalists and giant-killers are already runaway leaders in the Eredivisie and until their loss to Chelsea in Amsterdam, they looked set to be the runaway leaders in this group too. They will want to avenge that defeat with another away victory in the Champions League. Ajax defeated Juventus, Real Madrid and Tottenham away from home last season and will be confident of doing the same against Chelsea to re-establish themselves as the top team in the group. Ajax are 29/10 to claim another famous away victory in the year 2019.
Match preview
The previous match was very tight between the two with Chelsea being more clinical by grabbing a late goal. At the moment, Ajax are more dangerous away from home, so expect them to have chances against Chelsea, and we could see a lot of goals in this match if they put their chances away this time. You can get odds of 11/8 on STS for there to be over 3.5 goals in the game.

Chelsea: Antonio Rüdiger and N’golo Kante
