Group E

Ajax could be the dark horses of the competition!

The side from Amsterdam are not quite up there with BVB when it comes to fluency and threat in attack but they are gradually becoming a side to watch under the tutelage of Erik ten Hag who came in for Marcel Keizer as manager in December of 2017.

Ajax, just like Borussia Dortmund, are filled to the brim with youthful potential like, centre-back and Barcelona target Matthijs de Ligt (who is also the captain at a tender age of 19), Noussair Mazraoui (20), Frenkie de Jong (21) and striker Kasper Dolberg (21) playing with a sense of maturity beyond their years.

Against SL Benfica they simply did not give up till the end and Mazraoui scored the winner in injury time. They have already drawn away to a struggling Bayern side and are joint top with the German powerhouse after three matchdays.

For the next 3 games, all eyes would be on Ajax and Bayern to see who slips up first.
