High-flying AZ Alkmaar will be aiming to keep their perfect start to the new Eredivisie campaign intact when they welcome Willem II. AZ had to work hard for their latest victory, coming from behind to beat Heerenveen 3-2, but they have now won six consecutive matches across all competitions. Their home numbers are particularly impressive, with AZ averaging 3.00 goals per game across their last four outings. Kasius, Resink and Smit are struggling with injuries, although their absences have barely been felt during recent triumphs.
Willem II, meanwhile, will be looking to respond after a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Excelsior. The Tricolores have actually won 75% of their last four away matches, but their overall defensive record remains a concern, with 1.70 goals conceded per game across their last 10. Vilhena and Dekker are both pushing for starts after appearing from the bench at the weekend. AZ should have enough quality to maintain their winning run.
Considerin that AZ Alkmaar are in superb form, anything but a routine Home Win would be a big surprise, alongside AZ -1.5 and AZ Over 1.5 goals (AZ average 3.00 goals per home game recently).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Friday 11 September 2026 at 19:00.
