Ajax aim for a turnaround when they take on Brighton in a Europa League game at the Johan Cruyff Arena on Thursday.
John van 't Schip has snapped a 10-game winless run in all competitions as caretaker at the Dutch side, who are now eyeing a third straight win following Eredivisie wins over Volendam and Heerenveen.
At a time Ajax hunt for their first win in the European second division this term, Brighton will be looking to complete the double in Group B.
However, the continental win at the Amex was the Seagulls' only victory in their last eight games (D4 L3) in all competitions as Roberto De Zerbi's men drew their last two league games 1-1 with Fulham and Everton.

Steven Bergwijn looks to have recovered from the knock he sustained when the two sides met last month, with Chuba Akpom's recent form throwing in some competition for the former's starting berth.
Although Van' t Schip will not look to make too many changes, Borna Sosa may have earned the left-back spot ahead of Arjany Martha.
