Vojvodina will invite Ajax to TSC Arena in the second leg of the UEFA Europa League second qualifying round on Thursday. The two teams met in Amsterdam in the first leg last week, with Ajax recording a 1-0 home win.
It was a close game and substitutes Mika Godts and Branco van den Boomen combined in the 86th minute to score the match-winner for the Eredivisie giants.
The hosts have not qualified for the group stage of a UEFA competition in the 21st century. They trail by just one goal on aggregate and will look to overturn the deficit in the home leg.
