APWin experts have analyzed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

According to our projections for Ajax vs Benfica, this is a match where we can find a good deal of value in the corner market.

With little offensive action anticipated from the two sides, our best tip is to take the under on 9.5 corners. That means 9 total corners or fewer throughout the match will win the bet.

👉 Our prediction is: Benfica win or draw

We feel strongly about Benfica's chances of leaving with a point, or maybe even more. That is why our betting tip is Benfica to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

Benfica has shown considerable courage and determination in their recent away performances, while Ajax's form has not been the most convincing. So while an away win might be too much to ask for, Benfica is more than capable of collecting a point in this match.
