UEFA Champions League: Chelsea vs Ajax preview, odds, team news, predictions, and lineups

October 20, 2025

Chelsea take on Ajax in a Champions League clash at Stamford Bridge, and you can bet on the game at Housebets.com.

The Champions League returns this weekend, with a host of top matches across Europe, including Chelsea’s clash against Ajax.

Enzo Maresca’s men will be looking to continue their fine form, while Ajax will be looking to bounce back from last weekend’s disappointment.

Remember, you can bet on all the UEFA Champions League games at Housebets. Some of the markets you can bet on include the moneyline market, totals market, corner market, and outrights.

All you need to do is create an account on the site, fund your account with any cryptocurrency of your choice, and go to the sports section to start placing your bets.

Chelsea are definitely the favourites in this game, but Ajax are also capable of producing an upset.

Chelsea vs Ajax Preview

Chelsea take on Ajax in an important Champions League clash, with the Blues looking for a second consecutive win in this year’s competition.

Maresca’s men started their campaign with a defeat at Bayern Munich, but bounced back on matchday two with a slim 1-0 win over Benfica.

The win over Benfica was Jose Mourinho’s homecoming, but the Blues put all emotions aside to pick up the three points.

Chelsea will now enter their game against Ajax, looking to build on their win against the Portuguese side.

They are good for it, though, having been on a nice run of form lately. Maresca’s men have had a rollercoaster season, but appear to be on the up again.

They have won their last three games since beating Benfica, with the latest being a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest last weekend.

The Blues will now aim to continue their impressive form on Wednesday. The omens look good for Chelsea, as they have only lost two of their last 60 home games in the Champions League.

This is Chelsea’s 200th game in the competition, and they will hope to mark this number with a win.

However, Ajax will not be pushovers, even though the Dutch giants have been on a poor run of form lately.

The four-time European champions are nine points adrift of Feyenoord in the title race and have had a poor start to their Champions League campaign.

Ajax are the second from bottom in the standings after losing their first two games. Johnny Hetinga’s side were thrashed 4-0 in their first game against Olympique Marseille before losing 2-0 at home to Inter Milan.

They come into this game on the back of a 2-0 loss to AZ Alkmaar in their Eredivisie encounter on Saturday.

These are not good days for Ajax, but they did manage a 4-4 draw last time they faced Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea vs Ajax Team News

Chelsea will still be without Liam Delap, who is currently out with an injury. The Blues will also be without Cole Palmer (groin), Mykhaylo Mudryk (doping ban), Levi Colwill (ACL), Dario Essugo (thigh), and Benoit Badiashile (muscle)for the clash.

Malo Gusto picked up a red card in the game against Nottingham Forest, but he should be available as his suspension only counts in the Premier League.

As for Ajax, Owen Wijndal is still out, alongside Branco van den Boomen. However, Wout Weghorst should be available.
