Ajax has been dominant domestically and performed one of the team's best European campaigns last year. This year, Ten Hag's team was on a roll to secure their Eredivisie title, while maintaining their competitiveness in the Champions League. But recent results not only put the team away from the Champions League round of 16 but also allowed AZ Alkmaar to equal their points on top of the Eredivisie.

Ajax lost 3 consecutive games in all competitions without scoring a single goal:

Ajax 0-2 Willem II , Eredivisie fixture 16





Ajax 0-1 Valencia CF , Champions League matchday 6





AZ Alkmaar 1-0 Ajax, Eredivisie fixture 17





We have to get back until April 1956 to find something equal to this!
