Ajax W Recent Form
| Match | Date | Competition | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ajax 2-0 Brøndby IF | 2026-08-05 | UEFA Women’s CL Qualification | 2-0 |
| Ajax 2-1 Rangers LFC | 2026-08-08 | UEFA Women’s CL Qualification | 2-1 |

| Ajax 1-0 PEC Zwolle Vrouwen | 2026-08-22 | Vrouwen Eredivisie | 1-0 |
Ajax’s form in this summer’s Champions League qualification has been solid. They beat Brøndby 2-0 and Rangers 2-1 in the group stage, confirming they can handle European qualification football at this level. The domestic form backs that up: consecutive 1-0 wins over Utrecht and PEC Zwolle. Katja Snoeijs is their most reliable attacker, while Sherida Spitse brings veteran quality to the midfield. Femke Liefting in goal has been consistent. At home in Amsterdam, Ajax have shown they can be tight defensively and clinical on the counter.
Real Madrid W Recent Form
| Match | Date | Competition | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Real Madrid 2-0 Granada | 2026-05-31 | Liga F | 2-0 |
| Real Madrid 2-0 Madrid CFF | 2026-08-01 | Club Friendly | 2-0 |
| Real Madrid 2-0 Crystal Palace | 2026-08-05 | Club Friendly | 2-0 |
| Real Madrid 2-4 Sevilla FC | 2026-08-08 | Club Friendly | 2-4 |
| Tottenham FC 1-2 Real Madrid | 2026-08-12 | Club Friendly | 1-2 |
| Real Madrid 2-1 RCD de A Coruña | 2026-08-16 | Club Friendly | 2-1 |
Real Madrid’s pre-season has been mixed. Three clean-sheet wins over Crystal Palace, Madrid CFF, and Granada were followed by a 2-4 loss to Sevilla, which raised some defensive concerns. The wins over Tottenham and Coruña in August confirmed the attack is functioning: Linda Caicedo, when fit and in form, is one of the best players in women’s football globally. Merle Frohms in goal brings international reliability. The squad depth, with Adriana Valbuena Peñuela and Filippa Angeldahl in midfield, offers more tactical options than Ajax can match individually.

Ajax W vs Real Madrid W Prediction
Real Madrid’s squad quality, particularly the presence of Caicedo, Frohms, and Angeldahl, gives them the edge against an Ajax side that is well organised but operates at a lower ceiling in terms of individual talent. Ajax have shown they can win tight matches in qualification football, and their home record this summer is impressive. Admittedly, their 2-4 home friendly loss to Nürnberg showed they are not impervious to attacks when the opponent finds space in behind. But the competitive fixtures against Brøndby and Rangers were controlled performances. The gap in quality between the squads suggests Real Madrid should edge this, with a 1-2 away win the most probable outcome in what should be a competitive, low-scoring encounter.
