AZ, Recent FormIn their previous league fixture, AZ managed a remarkable 3-0 away win against NEC Nijmegen. They achieved 46% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against NEC Nijmegen's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Manager Maarten Martens will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 13 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 home games, and this season they have notched up 7 clean sheets in 15 games at AFAS Stadion.
Being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 league matches at AFAS Stadion, suggests a consistent run of home form, especially when we consider that 4 of these results were wins.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for AZ, Vangelis Pavlidis will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
FC Twente, Recent FormFC Twente have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 3-1 home win against Almere City in their previous league match. In that game they had 52% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 8 on target, compared to Almere City who had 7 attempts and 2 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 10 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Twente recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
With 5 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Ricky van Wolfswinkel has given the travelling FC Twente support something to shout about on the road.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was AZ who ended up empty-handed, losing 2-1 to FC Twente.
De Tukkers will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 8 encounters with AZ.
Twente has won the last 2 games they've played against AZ in the league.
FC Twente 1 - 2 AZAZ manager Maarten Martens has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Jordy Clasie (Groin), Mayckel Lahdo (Unknown), Bruno Martins Indi (Back) and Lequincio Zeefuik (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Twente manager Joseph Oosting ahead of this clash, with Myron Boadu (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Oosting a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
