The team from Amsterdam is in pot 1 and meets three lesser opponents on paper, although the team of trainer Alfred Schreuder can still be linked to top clubs such as Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund.
PSV had also hoped to be in the tube on Thursday. However, the Eindhoven team lost to Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s Rangers FC on Wednesday evening and were sentenced to participate in the Europa League.
Ajax won all its six group matches last year, but then lost to Benfica in the eighth final. After a 2-2 draw in Portugal, they lost 0-1 at home. PSV last participated in the Champions League in 2018/2019.
The group stage of the Champions League kicks off on September 6. After the last day of play on November 2, it is clear which sixteen teams will overwinter in the million-dollar ball and which should continue in the Europa League. The last numbers can focus on the national competition after the winter World Cup in Qatar.
