Sociedad and Ajax will be colliding for the first time in a competitive fixture on Thursday. However, Spanish sides have a positive record against Dutch sides, winning two of the last four, and remaining unbeaten across all matches over that period.
Ajax have recorded just two wins in their last 12 away matches in Spain. But, it could be worth noting that the two wins that they have recorded have come in their three previous away matches.
Sociedad have lost their opening two home matches in the Europa League this season, and they will be aiming to avoid making unwanted history as they have never lost three in succession. Brian Brobbey has been a standout player for Ajax in the competition, recording six goals in five appearances.
