Napoli vs Ajax Bet Builder: Wednesday, October, 12th

We’ve got Napoli vs Ajax bet builder tips this Wednesday night. The fourth Champions League matchday of the season is set to be another exciting one. The focus will be on whether the hosts can earn qualification to the Round of 16.

While at the same time, Ajax will be looking to keep their own qualification hopes alive. This means it is almost a win-or-bust scenario for the Dutch outfit.

Napoli vs Ajax Preview

Wednesday, October 12th, 17:45 (UK)

As far as starts to the season go, Napoli’s has been rather impressive. A two-point lead at the top of Serie A is coupled with a three-point advantage over Liverpool in the Champions League.

While it is not just Liverpool that they have run roughshod over and after humbling Jurgen Klopp’s men at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, they have seemingly found an extra gear on the road.

With three goals being scored in front of their own support during Matchday 1, four more were scored at Ibrox on Matchday 2. Add that sensational 6-1 thrashing of Ajax in Amsterdam last week and now is a great time to be a Napoli supporter.

While their fervent support will be ready to cheer the team on this Wednesday and should they manage to come out on top. It will be an invite to the Round of 16 that soon arrives in the post.

Standing in the way of progress are the same team that they mauled in the Netherlands. If Ajax have not learned anything from such a heavy defeat, they will likely succumb to a third Champions League reverse in a row.

Then again, heavy defeats can also serve to be a wake-up call at the same time. With Alfred Schreuder’s men looking to earn a Europa League play-off berth at the very least, they will now look to exact revenge on their Italian counterparts.


Napoli vs Ajax Stats & Facts

  • The 6-1 defeat that Napoli handed Ajax last week, was subsequently their heaviest-ever loss in European competition.
  • Although Ajax are unbeaten in their last four Italian Champions League trips (W2 D2).
  • Napoli are looking to make it 10 consecutive home Champions League matches without defeat.
  • Mohammed Kudus has scored in each of Ajax’s last three Champions League outings.

Although Ajax will have revenge on their minds before Wednesday, I am not sure it is going to be enough to sway my own thinking. With Napoli having already won each of their last three Champions League matches, I think it will be more of the same in midweek.

This is why I have opted for a Napoli win as the first leg of my bet builder and with the attacking prowess that they have shown thus far, it is incredibly difficult to then bet against them.

With a number of exciting attacking options for manager Luciano Spaletti to choose from, I have a similar dilemma when it comes to selecting an anytime scorer. Thankfully, bettingexpert favourite Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has made that decision slightly easier.

The Georgian has scored five goals in this season’s Serie A and once in the Champions League and armed with these stats, I am backing the 21-year-old to also find the net against Ajax.

A goal that in my opinion will be at least one of four at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. Although Napoli will do most of the heavy lifting, I do expect their Dutch opposition to at least earn themselves a consolation prize.

This means when you add a Napoli win, a Khvicha Kvaratskhelia goal as one of at least four in total and both teams also finding the net, this bet builder is priced at a rather tempting 6.50.

  • Napoli win
  • Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to score anytime
  • Over 3 total goals
  • Both teams to score

Bet Builder odds: 6.50

Odds via Bet365 as at 11.30 October 10th 2022. Odds may now differ.
