Given AZ Alkmaar's fine display in the KNVB Beker win (3-1) over Zwolle, we predict that they will give fans yet another reason to celebrate this weekend by beating Go Ahead Eagles 2-1. AZ Alkmaar have been in a fine form of late, winning 3 of their last 5 matches and looking especially strong at home, where they average 2.25 points per game and score 2.00 goals per outing. Their underlying numbers are equally impressive, with an expected goals of 2.20 at home and a solid defensive expected goals against of 0.92, highlighting their ability to control matches. The hosts also welcome positive squad news: Elijah Dijkstra has recovered from his minor injury, strengthening their defensive options.
The visitors, on the other hand, continue to show a stark contrast between home and away performances. While strong at De Adelaarshorst, their away form is alarming—four defeats from four, scoring just 0.75 goals per game while conceding 2.25. However, they do receive a boost as defender Dean Ruben James returns from suspension, adding experience and stability to a back line that will be heavily tested.
Given AZ’s home dominance and a better head-to-head record, the Cheese Farmers should have the upper hand here. Sensible betting options include AZ /AZ Over 2.5 Goals, and AZ to Win & Over 2.5 Goals.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 7 December 2025 at 13:30.
