ComboBoxItem Binding Error on opening combobox (wpf)

I am opening my combobox once it gets focus using combobox.isDropDownOpen I am getting the following binding error in the console

System.Windows.Data Error: 4 : Cannot find source for binding with reference 'RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType='System.Windows.Controls.ItemsControl', AncestorLevel='1''. BindingExpression:Path=VerticalContentAlignment; DataItem=null; target element is 'ComboBoxItem' (Name=''); target property is 'VerticalContentAlignment' (type 'VerticalAlignment')

here is the code:

private void combo_GotFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    placeholder.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;

    combo.IsDropDownOpen = true;
}

private void combo_LostFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    if (combo.Text.Equals(""))
    {
        placeholder.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
    }

}
