    Head coach Frank de Boer thinks Ajax will beat Celtic on Wednesday if they can match the performance that resulted in a Champions League loss in Glasgow.
    Celtic beat the Dutch side 2-1 last month to leapfrog them in Group H.
    "We think we will succeed if we play the same as we did in Glasgow," said De Boer ahead of the Amsterdam return.
    "If you look at that match we had chances and a lot of good moments. Celtic didn't create any chances but scored twice and won the game."
    Ajax have gathered just one point from their three group games and have slipped to sixth place in the Eredivisie after a run of just one win in five matches.
    "We have to force the game but we are in good shape to create chances and get the three points."
    Celtic's record on the road in the Champions League is not good, with 20 defeats in 22 outings.
    And a loss for either team would seriously derail hopes of catching Barcelona and AC Milan, who lead the way on seven and five points, respectively.
    "They can be confident, they have had some good results in the last year, [beating] Barcelona for example, so they can be confident," said De Boer of the visitors.
    "But I saw good things from my side in Glasgow so I also have confidence in my team that we can get three points here and then we are one point ahead [of Celtic].
    "It is a crucial game for us. For them, a draw is maybe enough so they can wait more than they did in Glasgow.
    "We have to force the game but we are in good shape to create chances and get the three points."
    De Boer went on to say he hopes the tiny percentage of Ajax fans he describes as "crazy" do not disrupt the tie.
    Uefa opened disciplinary proceedings against the Dutch club after some of their supporters clashed with police and stewards and damaged seats at Parkhead.
    "There were moments when they made more noise than the Celtic fans did which was fantastic," said De Boer.
    "There is always some crazy people [who] try to disturb something but hopefully it will not happen.
    "There have not been so many incidents like that over the last couple of years.
    "Of course, it was a bad thing they did in Glasgow and hopefully they will be punished for that but normally 99% are good supporters."

    I * loathe Ajax. What has that Hun * been sniffing? His team are * awful. Celtic didn't create any chances? We created at least two, ya fud, look at the scoreline. Reminds me of the Benfica fans and their coach mouthing off last season. I hope we dump Ajax out of Europe like we did them.

    That's good news for us, he's basically saying I want us to play purely and utterly average and toothless as *.

    We can only hope and pray they play the same way they did in Glasgow, we didn't play anywhere near our best yet still beat them and never once looked strained in doing so.

    I reckon we'll have learnt from the first game probably more than they will, if we pressure their keeper and full backs they will make mistakes because they are pre-programmed to make silly passes backwards and forwards and go nowhere for chunks of the game at a time.

    Haha, well said Vert, it's gonna be interesting. Let them force the play, we'll pick them off on the break down the left hand side. If he thinks that Ajax will be doing the pressing he's in for a shock. Hopefully.

    Hopefully Mulgrew isn't in midfield ahead of Ledley

    Is this match being broadcast on any of the bbc channels tomorrow night? Or is it Sky or BTsport showing the game?

    Neil consistently uses Mulgrew in midfield for Europe, especially this season. That tied with the fact that Ledley played at the weekend, suggests that Kayal was rested to start the game. I don't know...Commons is a doubt for the game, so there's definitely a possibility Charlie, Joe, and Beram will be in the same team.

    Most of the TC members must be away to the dam with the lack of build up to this :icon_mrgreen:
    Ajax are without a doubt there for the taking but I still think a draw will be a good result.

    Christ that score is gonna be 1-6 by kick off tomorrow :56:

    To re-iterate, here is my ideal team for tomorrow, with Commons, Samaras, Lustig all available.

    Forster
    Lustig Ambrose Van Dijk Izaguirre
    Kayal Mulgrew
    Forrest Commons Samaras
    Stokes


    Ledley will be in if Commons is out, but we will end up with no-one able to hold up the ball through the middle. Plus Commons has the ability to link up like a second striker.
