📰 Team News: AZ

In all likelihood, AZ may well opt for a 4-2-3-1 system and select Rome Owusu-Oduro, Denso Kasius, Wouter Goes, Alexandre Penetra, David Moeller Wolfe, Peer Koopmeiners, Zico Buurmeester, Ernest Poku, Sven Mijnans, Ruben van Bommel and Mexx Meerdink.

📰 Team News: SC Heerenveen

Owing to an otherwise full-strength squad, there is just the lone fitness worry for the SC Heerenveen manager Robin Veldman to be concerned with. Pawel Bochniewicz (Torn knee ligaments) misses out for this game.

We reckon that De Superfriezen seem likely to elect for a 4-1-4-1 system, settling for Andries Noppert, Oliver Braude, Sam Kersten, Hristiyan Petrov, Mats Koehlert, Marcus Linday, Jacob Trenskow, Levi Smans, Luuk Brouwers, Eser Gurbuz and Milos Lukovic.

⚡ Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that AZ should really score at least once when they come up against SC Heerenveen, who will not find it easy to find the back of the net.

We’re tipping a pretty comfortable 2-0 victory for AZ at the conclusion of the game.
