NEC Nijmegen manager Rogier Meijer will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against PEC Zwolle. They came away from that fixture with 58% of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 9 on target. By comparison, PEC Zwolle managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 11 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 5 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. Of the 30 games they have played so far this season, they've scored in 27 of them but conceded at least one goal on 24 occasions.
They have been performing well at Goffertstadion recently and are unbeaten in their last 7 home games.
When it comes to home matches at Goffertstadion, Koki Ogawa will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for NEC Nijmegen in their last 6 home games.

Manager Maarten Martens will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 14 goals in their last 6 games, but will have concerns about his defence with 12 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Vangelis Pavlidis will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 26 goals in AZ's 30 league games this season.
