Their European home record is exceptional \u2014 <strong>unbeaten in 15 group-stage home matches (W11, D4)<\/strong> and haven\u2019t lost such a fixture since <strong>September 2019<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With <strong>Reece James<\/strong> leading by example and the squad brimming with confidence, the Blues will be eager to celebrate their <strong>200th UCL game<\/strong> in style.

Their <strong>2-0 defeat to AZ Alkmaar<\/strong> exposed their defensive issues and lack of firepower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Champions League, Ajax have <strong>lost both matches without scoring<\/strong> \u2014 including a <strong>4-0 humiliation at Marseille<\/strong>. If history is any indicator, things may worsen: they are <strong>winless in five major European games<\/strong> and haven\u2019t suffered <strong>six straight defeats<\/strong> in continental action since <strong>1989<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udcca Head-to-Head and Key Stats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Chelsea vs Ajax H2H:<\/strong> Chelsea lead (W1, D1).<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ajax vs English teams:<\/strong> 11 games without a win (D2, L9).<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chelsea\u2019s streak:<\/strong> None of their last <strong>50 European games ended goalless<\/strong>.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ajax\u2019s away record:<\/strong> Lost only 4 of their last 20 away UCL matches, but none against current top sides.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hot stat:<\/strong> Only one of Chelsea\u2019s last six UCL games saw both teams score.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/images-2025-10-22T153846.170.jpg\" alt=\"Chelsea vs Ajax Prediction &amp; Betting Tips | UCL 2025\" class=\"wp-image-12618\" style=\"width:969px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/images-2025-10-22T153846.170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/images-2025-10-22T153846.170-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83c\udf1f Key Players to Watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reece James (Chelsea):<\/strong> In red-hot form, having scored 10 consecutive club goals after halftime.
