Ajax Amsterdam today plays their third group stage game at home against Portuguese club SL Benfica, who use a red home kit as well as a white away kit as an alternative. Unfortunately, Ajax' home kit unites red and white within the club's renowned design, which would be in violation of UEFA's kit rules, if they were to use their home kit.
Therefore, we'll see Ajax Amsterdam starting on their own turf with the away kit.
