Team Analysis
Dutch giants Ajax travel to Latvia to take on Rigas Futbola Skola in their penultimate League Phase fixture in the Europa League on Thursday night. While the hosts find themselves towards the bottom of the 36-team standings, the visitors are pushing to secure an automatic spot in the last 16.

RFS will be without Ismael Diomande, Martins Kigurs (both knee) and Emerson Deocleciano (leg) as they continue to recover from injury. As for Ajax, Benjamin Tahirovic (concussion) and Owen Wijndal (knee) will be assessed, while Jorrel Hato is suspended having picked up three yellow cards in the League Phase. Davy Klaassen, meanwhile, is ineligible.

Odds Analysis
RFS are bidding to keep their slim hopes of last-16 qualification alive, but they will enter Thursday's fixture as underdogs against an Ajax side hoping to strengthen their pursuit of a top-eight finish. The hosts will hope to give a good account of themselves, but we feel that the visitors will ultimately have too much for them in Latvia and should have few problems securing maximum points.

Pick: AFC Ajax
