AZ, Recent FormIn their last match AZ enforced their superiority over FC Volendam with a 4-0 away win. In that game they had 61% possession and managed 20 attempts on goal, with 8 on target, compared to FC Volendam who had 6 attempts and 2 on target.
Maarten Martens will be more than satisfied with his side's form of late, having recorded 13 goals in their last 6 encounters and only conceded 2 goals in that time. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games whilst also keeping a clean sheet in 4 of those games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Vangelis Pavlidis will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 23 goals in AZ's 26 league games this season.
Vitesse, Recent FormVitesse will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Almere City, which ran out a 1-1 draw. They came away from that fixture with a 65% share of the possession and clocked up 22 attempts on goal with 7 on target, in comparison to Almere City, who managed 8 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 11 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 23 of their 26 games overall.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation. The've not managed to settle at all away from home this season, losing 10 of their 13 league games on the road.
On an individual basis, Paxten Aaronson has scored in each of Vitesse's last 2 league games away from home.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 0-2 win for AZ.
In their previous 4 encounters with AZ, Vites have shipped at least one goal in those matches. On each of the last 2 outings between Vitesse and AZ in the league, Vites have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals. In their past 5 meetings, Kaaskoppen's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Vitesse will have to take their chances when they come.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, AZ has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Vitesse in 5 games.
AZ manager Maarten Martens has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Mayckel Lahdo (Unknown), Bruno Martins Indi (Back) and Sem Westerveld (Meniscus) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Edward Sturing has a number of injury concerns in his Vitesse squad to contend with: Fodé Fofana (Knee), Miliano Jonathans (Knee), Melle Meulensteen (Groin), Davy Pröpper (Knee) and Marco van Ginkel (Hamstring)
