📏 Form Guide
AZ
WLWWWL
AZ will be hoping to return to winning ways here after the 1-0 Conference League Qualifiers losing effort in their last game against Dundee United.
Glenn Middleton (61') scored for Dundee United.
Their most recent results really do illustrate the point that it has been a great time for the AZ rearguard. AZ have been miserly, resulting in the number of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their previous six outings standing at 4. That kind of pattern might not follow through into this match, however.
Go Ahead Eagles
WLLLLL 🔻
The stats don’t lie, and Go Ahead Eagles have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, with opponents netting 8 goals in total. At the back, Go Ahead Eagles have seen their frailties exposed.
🤜🤛 Head to head
A review of their past head to head results stretching back to 06/12/2014 reveals that these encounters have been pretty painful for Go Ahead Eagles. They have not been able to come away with any wins whatsoever while AZ have remained in the ascendancy, running out winners in 83% of those matches played.
Those games weren’t short on goals, either, with 22 in all which averages out at 3.67 goals per match.
The last league meeting between the two was Eredivisie match day 22 on 13/02/2022 when it ended Go Ahead Eagles 1-4 AZ.
That time, Go Ahead Eagles managed 49% possession and 9 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. Their only player to score was Luuk Brouwers (25').
AZ got 15 attempts at goal with 9 on target. Sam Beukema (27', 85') and Vangelis Pavlidis (33', 42') scored.
The referee was Marc Nagtegaal.
ℹ️ Team News: AZ
Yukinari Sugawara (Knee Surgery), Peer Koopmeiners (Ill), Zinho Vanheusden (Knock), Jesper Karlsson (Muscle Injury), Jens Odgaard (Knock) and Riechedly Bazoer (Ill) aren’t available for AZ manager Pascal Jansen.
We are thinking that AZ may well use a 4-2-3-1 formation this time, utilising Hobie Verhulst, Pantelis Hatzidiakos, Sam Beukema, Bruno Martins Indi, Milos Kerkez, Tijani Reijnders, Jordy Clasie, Haakon Evjen, Dani de Wit, Mayckel Lahdo and Evangelos Pavlidis.
📋 Team News: Go Ahead Eagles
Go Ahead Eagles manager René Hake has a number of players out of action. Rashaan Fernandes (Unknown Injury), Gerrit Nauber (Unknown Injury), Jahnoah Markelo (Unknown Injury) and Martijn Berden (Ulnar fracture) are not able to play.
From our viewpoint, Trots aan de IJssel seem likely to make use of a 4-4-2 system with a starting lineup of Jeffrey De Lange, Mats Deijl, Jay Idzes, Jose Fontan, Bas Kuipers, Evert Linthorst, Philippe Rommens, Willum Willumsson, Oliver Edvardsen, Isac Lidberg and Finn Stokkers.
⚡ Prediction
One thing is for certain, Go Ahead Eagles may well find it hard to be putting goals past a AZ team who should be able to set up a big win.
We’re going for a comprehensive 3-0 winning margin for AZ when the referee blows the final whistle.
