Valencia vs. Ajax live stream: Watch Champions League online

Valencia face Ajax at Mestalla on Wednesday, Oct. 2. Here’s all the info you need to watch.

Valencia’s latest bout of self-harm has seen club president Peter Lim dispense with the services of successful head coach Marcelino, who had led the side to back-to-back Champions League qualifications. In the two years prior to Marcelino’s appointment, Valencia had twice finished the league season 12th.

Lim’s decision has understandably not gone down well with either the players or the fans. To make matters worse, sporting director Mateu Alemany – Marcelino’s close ally and the co-architect of Valencia’s recent upturn in fortunes – is reportedly in the midst of negotiations to secure his own departure from the club.

Last season’s surprise semi-finalists Ajax won a lot of friends with their glorious attacking play. They lost three mainstays of that side over the summer – Matthijs de Ligt, Frenkie de Jong and Lasse Schone – to Juventus, Barcelona and Genoa respectively, as well as back-up striker Kasper Dolberg to Nice.

It remains a talented squad, though, with the likes of Hakim Ziyech, Nicolas Tagliafico, Dusan Tadic, David Neres and Donny van de Beek still in place. Reinforcements have been brought in as well, most notably Quincy Promes from Sevilla.

New Valencia head coach Albert Celades’ appointment hasn’t been met with universal approval among supporters, to put it mildly, and a run of bad results is likely to see the atmosphere at Mestalla sour quickly.
