Marc ter Stegen is expected to start in goal, with Aaron Bouwman and Youri Baas forming the central defensive duo due to Daley Blind's injury. On the left-back position, Míchel is likely to choose Caio Henrique, while he has a decision to make on the right-back position, with Anton Gaaei possibly getting the nod over Lucas Rosa for freshness.

Davy Klaassen and Julian Brandt are set to start in midfield, with Jorthy Mokio likely to replace Youri Regeer in the starting lineup after the latter's early substitution against FC Sion. In the attack, Tolu Arokodare and Abdellah Ouazane are expected to start, with Steven Berghuis playing from the left flank.

Ajax's likely lineup is: Marc ter Stegen; Anton Gaaei, Aaron Bouwman, Youri Baas, Caio Henrique; Davy Klaassen, Jorthy Mokio, Julian Brandt; Steven Berghuis, Tolu Arokodare, Abdellah Ouazane.
