Team News

NEC Nijmegen

  • Marcel Stutter and Rens van Eijden will miss the visit of AZ.
  • Nonetheless, Anton Janssen is expected to continue with his tried and tested.

AZ Alkmaar

  • Nick Viergever and Nemanja Gudelj are both suspended after picking up red cards in AZ’s draw against Roda JC last weekend.
  • With Donny Gorter still out injured it could mean a first league start for Ridgeciano Haps at left-back. Viktor Elm could start in place of the absent Gudelj.

Match Facts

  • There have been over 2.5 goals scored in NEC Nijmegen’s last 9 home games in Eredivisie.
  • NEC Nijmegen have failed to win 23 of their last 24 matches in Eredivisie.
  • NEC Nijmegen have conceded at least 2 goals in 8 of their last 9 home matches in Eredivisie.
  • AZ Alkmaar have scored at least 2 goals in their last 5 matches in Eredivisie.
  • AZ Alkmaar are undefeated in their last 5 matches in Eredivisie.

Prediction

  • AZ missed the opportunity to move to the top of the Eredivisie last weekend. They will nonetheless travel to NEC knowing 15 points separate both clubs.
  • However, their form on the road has been mixed: one win in their last five games away from home. But if there’s a place where they could amend that, it is the Goffertstadion.
  • NEC have only avoided defeat in four of their last thirteen home games, but their only win was against a buoyant Heerenveen, so AZ must be wary of succumbing to defeat.

NEC Nijmegen 1 - 3 AZ Alkmaar
