Utrecht vs AZ Alkmaar Prediction & Betting Tips - Eredivisie

Prediction published on 24/12/2020, 19:30 by James | Modified on 24/12/2020 at 20:30 in Eredivisie Predictions

Title-chasing AZ Alkmaar travel to Utrecht for an Eredivisie match on Sunday. AZ, who last won the title in 2009, are presently fifth in the table with 26 points from 13 games. This tally leaves them eight points behind leaders Ajax with one game in hand. Utrecht, meanwhile, are tenth in the table with 16 points from 13 matches. A recent 3-2 win at Emmen means that Utrecht are on the rise in the Dutch top flight, the victory ending a dismal run of eight games in which they drew or lost. Despite that poor run, Utrecht have been difficult to beat at home this season with only Ajax managing to come away from their patch with three points. However, winning only two of their six home matches means that opponents will not tremble when they set foot in the Stadion Galgenwaard. Alkmaar are the only team left in the Eredivisie with an unbeaten away record. They have won three of their six matches on the road, the most recent victory coming at Twente.

Alkmaar manager Pascal Jansen is currently working out the kinks of his first role in senior management. Alkmaar won their last three Eredivisie games, scoring three or more goals in each fixture. Their team's star is the versatile midfielder Teun Koopmeiners, who is in contention for the player of the season award in the top flight. AZ have won two of their last three matches against Utrecht but lost three of the previous five. With Utrecht yet to keep a clean sheet a home, we see Alkmaar's in-form attack breaching a brittle a defence enough times to earn a win.
