Liverpool head into their second Champions League match of 2022/23 on the back foot as they prepare to face Ajax tonight.

The Reds were demolished 4-1 by Napoli in their group opener, a result that has cast an ominous shadow over Anfield.

Even when they have failed to compete with Manchester City across a 38-game Premier League campaign, Liverpool have performed superbly on the continent. They need a backlash display here to get their season back on the rails.

Jurgen Klopp’s side look light in midfield, though youngster Harvey Elliott is making the most of his opportunity in the spotlight.

Ajax – without Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag and his protege winger Antony – haven’t missed a step this season. They have won all six Eredivisie games so far this term.

Our prediction: Liverpool v Ajax

Liverpool are built for European competition, but their outing in Naples was a shocker. It remains to be seen whether the Reds can compete for major honours with their current midfield three. Ajax shouldn’t be underestimated and have goals in them. This could be an entertaining, end-to-end encounter.

Our prediction: Liverpool 2-2 Ajax (12/1 at bet365)
