Fans of Tottenham Hotspur should be relieved that their team isn’t heading across the English Channel to take on Ajax down 3-0 in aggregate. In the opening minutes, it looked like Ajax was going to deliver that kind of rout, as Donny van de Beek scored for the visitors in the opening minutes. After that, Tottenham was able to defuse much of the visitors’ attack. However, that road goal is crucial for Ajax, because it means that Tottenham would need either to win 2-0 to advance or to win by at least one goal if Ajax gets on the board, because of the away goal tiebreaker. Ajax has knocked off Real Madrid and Juventus, beating both European powerhouses in the away leg, and they are a Cinderella story in this league, as they are not in the top 30 clubs in Europe as far as revenue, but here they are, knocking off blue bloods left and right. Tottenham eliminated Manchester City, no small feat either, and now the two square off in the second semifinal leg on Wednesday. We have your Champions League betting preview right here.
