Ajax supervisory board member Johan Cruyff has voiced his opinion that the Amsterdam giants can achieve a positive in Tuesday\'s Champions League Group D match against Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu.The Eredivisie champions were beaten 2-0 by in the Spanish capital last year as Madrid dominated proceedings for the full 90 minutes.But Cruyff feels Ajax could get a result this time around following the Spaniards\' unconvincing start to the 2011-12 campaign. \"Normally, Ajax face a difficult evening in Madrid. However, there are plenty of question marks about Real Madrid\'s form,\" Cruyff said in his column in De Telegraaf.\"They have been very inconsistent in the opening weeks of the season and you can see that bothers them. \"Ajax have to be very organised. I can see them getting a few chances. Madrid\'s centre-backs are superb in the duels, but their positioning is rather suspect. I\'d say that is their Achilles heel and Ajax could take advantage of that.\"Ajax started the group stage with a scoreless draw against Olympique Lyonnais, while Real Madrid beat Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 in their opener.
