In the Europa League match against Brighton, Ajax coach John van ‘t Schip has to figure out what to do in midfield. Branco van den Boomen will miss the match due to a knee injury.
Van den Boomen was a starter for Ajax in the past two matches. He played the entire match against FC Volendam (2-0 win) and SC Heerenveen (4-1 win). This means that Van ‘t Schip must look for an alternative in midfield. Van den Boomen is also a doubt for next weekend when Ajax plays against Almere City.
Van ‘t Schip also has a number of recurring injury cases at his disposal. Borna Sosa, Devyne Rensch and Carlos Forbs played again on Sunday and are back in the match selection for the match against Brighton.
Ajax – Brighton starts tomorrow evening at 6.45 pm in the Johan Cruijff Arena. In England, the Amsterdam team lost 2-0 to the English. AZ will visit Aston Villa at 9 p.m. NH Sport will keep you informed via our live blog!
