Roma vs Ajax Women lineups and latest team news
Roma Women
Roma defied the odds in round 1 and came from 0-2 down to draw 2-2 against Bayern in Germany. There was plenty of luck involved in this outcome but also the She-wolves from Rome showed great character and forced luck to help them.
Roma’s season has been great so far and they top the domestic table after 8 rounds with maximum points. At the weekend another solid display saw Roma beat Sassuolo 2-0 away from home.
Useful defender Valdezate remains sidelined but everyone else is fit and available.
Predicted Lineup – Ceasar (GK), Di Guglielmo, Minami, Linari, Algbogun, Giugliano, Kumagai, Feiersinger, Haavi, Giacinti & Viens
Ajax Women
The young Ajax team stunned giants PSG in Amsterdam in round 1. Impressive first-half showing saw Ajax win this match 2-0. The team effort was excellent and the ability to switch to transition attack hurt the away side.
This effort affected the team’s weekend display though. On Sunday Ajax lost 0-1 against their main rivals for the title in the Netherlands Twente. The display was not too bad for about an hour but visible tiredness late on was witnessed.
Talented defensive midfielder Verhoeve and winger Tromp remain sidelined.
Predicted Lineup – Van Ejik (GK), De Sanders, Kardinaal, Spitse, Noordam, Van Gool, Yohannes, Hoekstra, Weerden, Leuchter & Grant

Player to Watch: Saki Kumagai
Roma’s new playmaker Saki Kumagai has settled quickly in the eternal city. The 33-year-old is a 5-time Champions League winner and her experience makes her a key player for the She-wolves.
Kumagai scored 3 Seria A goals in 7 games already. She has created the most big chances for Roma too and right now almost everything positive in attack is channelled through Kumagai so we expect to see her heavily involved again.
