Aston Villa v AFC Ajax: Round of 16 Second Leg - UEFA Europa Conference League 2023/24
AFC Ajax will host Almere City on Sunday

AFC Ajax Amsterdam will host Almere City at the Johan Cruijff ArenA on Sunday in the penultimate round of the 2023-24 Eredivisie campaign. The home side have endured a rather turbulent campaign and will be targeting a positive end to the season.

They beat Volendam 4-1 in their last match, with three different players getting on the scoresheet before their opponents scored a late consolation goal. Ajax remain fifth in the Eredivisie standings with 52 points picked up.

Almere City, meanwhile, have enjoyed a positive debut campaign in the Eredivisie this season and will play top-flight football next season as well. They played out a 1-1 draw against Heerenveen in their last game, taking the lead in the second half via a Kornelius Hansen strike before their opponents leveled the scores late in the game.
