Heerenveen will be hoping to turn their recent improvement up front into a positive result when they welcome high-flying AZ Alkmaar. The hosts are on a three-game winless run but have looked more promising in attack. Defender Mats Egbring remains in the recovery room, although the 19-year-old should not be sorely missed. Heerenveen have won 50% of their last 10 home games, while their defence has conceded just 0.75 goals per match in that period.
AZ, meanwhile, are aiming to preserve their perfect start to the new Eredivisie campaign after a confidence-boosting 5-2 win over Go Ahead Eagles. Kasius and Resink remain sidelined, while pacey forward Ro-Zangelo Daal will be one to watch. AZ have won three consecutive away games, scoring 2.20 goals per match and conceding only 0.40 across their last five away outings.
AZ Alkmaar are in splendid form and have won their last three away games. Therefore, Away Win is our main betting tip for this Eredivisie matchup, alongside AZ Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (78% of the last 37 H2H meetings produced at least three goals).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 6 September 2026 at 13:30.
