PEC Zwolle will face off AZ Alkmaar on Sunday September 24 2023, at their home turf MAC3PARK Stadion. The home team will be hoping to get their campaign back on track after having a run of inconsistent displays in recent weeks that has left them in 9th position heading into this tie. In order for the home side to prevent a defeat in this tie, they need to be at their best possible form to stop high flying Alkmaar who haven’t lost a single game in the Eredivisie this season.

The vistors despite losing out in midweek in Europe, a match which ended 4-3 against Zrinjski, they showed promise despite the defeat, scoring three away goals in the process to further buttress their clinicality in front of goal.

In this tie, we expect a very difficult match when these two teams go head to head. Previous meetings has shown these two sides to have the ability to score against each other, as they’ve produced a goal from both teams in their last six matches against each other.

Further more, we believe the vistors have a solid defense to prevent chaos heading into this tie as they have kept two clean sheets this season, and this has seen them climb the log table to second place, with 12 points this season. With respect to this, we are backing Alkmaar to prevent a defeat when they face the home team who has failed to keep a clean sheet in their last six matches in all competitions heading into this tie, so we believe the visitors has all it takes to see out a win or a draw in this tie.
