Prediction: 2-3
AZ
Venlo and AZ Alkmaar, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the remainder of the season, face each other at Seacon Stadion – De Koel in the Eredivisie round 23. Venlo have been playing some high-scoring games of late, with 14 goals in total being netted in the previous three meetings between the two teams. The Yellow-Blacks are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, but making life difficult for AZ is easier said than done.
Pascal Jansen’s troops, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Emmen and Heerenveen. AZ Alkmaar are eyeing a place in the Champions League, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Venlo. Given AZ’s attacking potential, over 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. In the first half of the season the two teams played out a 2-2 draw.
