Telstar take on AZ Alkmaar in a matchup where the difference in quality is clear, though the hosts have shown signs of resilience in recent weeks. Anyhow, our prediction points toward a 2-1 away win as AZ are a more experienced side. Telstar head into this clash unbeaten in four of their last five, but their home record remains a major concern: just 0.50 points per game and 0% home wins this season. Despite averaging 3.5 total goals per home match and scoring in every home fixture, their defensive issues persist, conceding 2.0 goals per game at their own stadium. Cedric Hatenboer returns from suspension, while Telstar are otherwise stable.
AZ, meanwhile, travel to Velsen-Zuid with a mixed run of form but possess far stronger metrics. The Cheese Farmers average 3.2 total goals per match, score 2.1 goals per game, and have kept 50% clean sheets overall. Their expected goals against (0.99) highlights defensive control, even if their away record is slightly inconsistent. Sven Mijnans is expected to miss out, but AZ’s squad depth should compensate.
With Telstar struggling at home and AZ’s superior expected goals numbers, the visitors look well-placed to take all three points. Therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on Away Win, alongside AZ Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total as both teams are involved in high-scoring trends.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 25 January 2026 at 11:15.
