Match summary

In the Conference League on Thursday 15 October 2026, Hajduk Split vs Ajax is our focus, with an Ajax win as the result pick and Hajduk Split or Ajax to win (no draw) as the double chance.

Why this pick?

Our model makes Ajax the result pick here, mainly because Ajax are rated stronger than Hajduk Split on our long-run, xG-based strength rating, and both teams sit clearly above the Conference League average. The main point against is home advantage for Hajduk Split, which is a moderate concern. But the reasons for Ajax outweigh that: their recent attacking play has been sharp, with shots, big chances and time in the opponent's box standing out. Overall, the call is narrow.
