Fortuna Sittard host AZ Alkmaar looking to halt a worrying slide, having collected just 0.80 points per game across their last five outings, but given their negative record against the Cheese Farmers, our prediction points toward a 2-1 away win. Shaky defence has been a recurring issue, with Sittard conceding 1.70 goals per match on average and keeping only one clean sheet in five. Despite that, their home games remain relatively open, producing 3.20 goals per game, while BTTS has landed in 80% of recent fixtures at Fortuna Sittard Stadion. Defender Justin Hubner is back from suspension but is unlikely to start, leaving the hosts largely unchanged.
AZ arrive better positioned, taking 1.60 points per game recently and scoring 1.80 goals per match overall. While away form has been mixed, AZ’s attacking potential remains consistent, supported by an average expected goals of 1.64 on the road. Historically, this matchup strongly favors the visitors, who have won 12 of the last 14 H2H meetings. There are no fresh injury concerns, with AZ coming in well-rested after their postponed league fixture.
With AZ dominantly leading H2H record and in fine form, Away Win is our main betting pick for this matchup, with additional value on Over 2.5 goals (79% H2H) and BTTS (50%).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 21 December 2025 at 15:45.
