Under three goals per match were seen in 5 of the last 6 fixtures where AZ have been involved. In terms of the goal attribution during this period, opposing sides scored an aggregate of 5 and AZ managed the sum of 5.

Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Fortuna Sittard in Eredivisie action, Excelsior and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

In that game, Excelsior had 52% possession and 5 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target. For Excelsior, goals were scored by Derensili Sanches Fernandes (61') and Richie Omorowa (82'). Fortuna Sittard had 17 attempts at goal with 8 on target. Justin Lonwijk (13'), Kaj Sierhuis (15', 29', 34') and Rodrigo Guth (68') scored for Fortuna Sittard.

Illustrating their partiality to high-scoring matches, goals have been seen as many as 24 times in the prior six games in which Excelsior have sent out their troops, giving an average of 4 goals each clash. Opposing teams have managed 17 from this total. That kind of trend wonโ€™t necessarily be continued into this next game, however.

A look at their previous results shows us that Excelsior:

  • have not beaten AZ when they've played them away from home in the last 2 league matches.
  • have not won away from home in their last 9 league matches. It's not a good run at all.

๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿค› Head to head

Checking on their past head to head clashes stretching back to 15/12/2018 shows us that AZ have won 3 of these & Excelsior 2, with the tally of drawn results being 1.

Loads of goals were seen in those games, too - 24 in all which averages out at 4 goals per match.

The previous league clash featuring these sides was Eredivisie match day 16 on 04/11/2023 and the score finished Excelsior 1-1 AZ.

The match was refereed by Laurens Gerrets.

โ„น๏ธ Team News: AZ

Sem Westerveld (Meniscus injury) and Hobie Verhulst (Meniscus injury) are unavailable for AZ manager Maarten Martens.

It looks as if AZ will probably employ a 4-2-3-1 formation this time featuring Mathew Ryan, Yukinari Sugawara, Wouter Goes, Riechedly Bazoer, David Moeller Wolfe, Kristijan Belic, Tiago Dantas, Sven Mijnans, Dani de Wit, Ruben van Bommel and Vangelis Pavlidis.

๐Ÿ“ฐ Team News: Excelsior

Excelsior manager Marinus Dijkhuizen has to choose a team with limited availability. Kik Pierie (Foot injury), Lennard Hartjes (Knee injury) and Ian Smeulers (unknown injury) are not ready for selection.

We believe Roodzwarten seem likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, settling for Stijn van Gassel, Siebe Horemans, Casper Widell, Sven Nieuwpoort, Mimeirhel Benita, Julian Baas, Cisse Sandra, D. Sanches Fernandes, Lance Duijvestijn, Kenzo Goudmijn and Richie Omorowa.

๐Ÿ’ก Prediction

Itโ€™s looking like Excelsior will have a tough assignment to find the net against a AZ team who have the quality to win well here.

Weโ€™re therefore predicting a very comprehensive 3-0 win for AZ when the referee blows the final whistle.

Our expert partners are tipping over 1.5 goals for this match. Check out their VIP predictions here.
