AZ Ajax betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Even at home, the AZ Alkmaar team will not have an easy match, so they will have to redouble themselves throughout the duel. Ajax has more quality and should show that throughout the match. We see the visitors with favoritism, so we will bet on their triumph at the end of the match.

After 10 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses, the home team is in the 4th position, havinf won 37 points so far. In the last match, they have lost at home against FC Utrecht by (0‑1), after in the previous match they have won (2‑3) an away match against Feyenoord. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 28 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 16 conceded. For the league, AZ won 17 points out of 27 possible points, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 9 home matches.

They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 19 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

AZ has maintained a regularity since the start of the competition and is fighting hard to be in the European competitions next season. In addition, the team still dreams of the title and will have its true final in this round. They will face the leader Ajax, and only a victory will put them in the fight for the cup. They'll have to play a smart match, because the opponent has a great offense and doesn't waste the opportunities that arise.

Confirmed Lineup: Marco Bizot, Yukinari Sugawara, Pantelis Hatzidiakos, Owen Wijndal, Bruno Martins Indi, Teun Koopmeiners, Fredrik Midtsjø, Jesper Karlsson, Albert Guðmundsson, Myron Boadu, Calvin Stengs.
Coach: M. Martens.

Analysis Ajax

The away team is currently in the 1st position of the league, with 44 points won, after 15 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Fortuna Sittard, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against Willem II, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 43 goals scored and 11 conceded; against 11 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses at their stadium, with 40 goals scored and 16 conceded.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 7 away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 15 of the last 19 matches for the Eredivisie, they have reached half‑time in front in 13 of those 15 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 14 of them.

In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 17 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

The team is the leader of the competition, but doesn't expect an easy time in this round. The rivals are closing in on the leaderboard and Ajax knows they will not be able to make mistakes. AZ will be one of the toughest opponents so far in the competition, and it will be important to devise a strategy to hold on to the opponent's strength. Even if they have an offensive strategy, the team must take extra care in their defense.

Confirmed Lineup: André Onana, Edson Álvarez, Daley Blind, Lisandro Martínez, Devyne Rensch, Perr Schuurs, Ryan Gravenberch, Davy Klaassen, Antony, Dušan Tadić, Sébastien Haller.
Coach: J. Heitinga.
