AZ Alkmaar vs. Heerenveen – Prediction H2H (19.10.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Currently better off based on goals scored (2.11 per match average) and points earned (20) than at this stage in eight of the last nine Eredivisie campaigns, AZ Alkmaar look to carry on their unlikely push to the top as they welcome Heerenveen. AZ have scored the opening goal in seven of nine league matches so far and will look for a similarly bright start here. No side have conceded fewer Eredivisie goals than AZ (0.44 per match average) with just one of those four shipped goals coming at ‘home’; a second-minute opener by Sparta before AZ led 15 minutes later (5-1). That result added to AZ’s impressive return of at least a two-goal margin in five of their six league victories this term.

The international break may have come too soon for Heerenveen, who recorded back-to-back league victories for the first time this season immediately before the ‘interlull’. They are yet to draw on the road (W2, L2) and all those games were settled by a margin of at least two goals. Ten of the 14 goals scored in Heerenveen away league games came before half-time (71.43%), while the Frisian’s only away league goals after half-time were scored in the final 15 minutes of play.
