AZ Alkmaar versus NAC Breda: Dutch Eredivisie week 30 review

The Dutch Eredivisie week 30 action kicks-off when the AZ Alkmaar take on the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/NAC-Breda-c39983 at the AZ Stadion on Friday, 8 April.
AZ Alkmaar
The AZ are coming into this match on the back of a 1-0 win over the fallen Eredivisie giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 Rotterdam, at the Feijenoord Stadion last week. The Alkmaar’s outfit are overflowing with confidence, as they have emerged victorious in four of their
five encounters.
The Alkmaar’s outfit are currently placed fourth in the league table, trailing the last UEFA Champions League spot by a mammoth nine points. With five matches left to play in the season, Champions League berth looks far-fetched. However, they will be hoping
to continue their good performances on the field in the remaining encounters of the season to finish in the top four Eredivisie sides.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 have played superbly in front of their home crowd. They lost only two of their 14 encounters at the AZ Stadion. They have an overall record of 29 played, 15 wins, 7 drawn, and 7 defeats.
The AZ’s manager, Gertjan Verbeek, is confident that his side can achieve superior results in the remaining fixtures and cement their place in the top four Dutch sides.
NAC Breda
After finding life difficult in Rotterdam and Groningen, the Breda’s outfit came back strongly to defeat De Graafschap 3-1 at the De Vijverberg Doetinchem last week. The Rats would be brimming with confidence with their dominant show on the road and will
be looking to repeat the same in the upcoming encounter as well.
The Yellow Army are currently placed 11th in the league table, trailing the last UEFA Europa League spot by a mammoth 11 points. With five matches left to play in the season, Europa League berth looks far-fetched for the Breda’s outfit. However,
they will be looking to achieve superior results in the remaining encounters to finish the season in the top ten Eredivisie side.
Pearl of the South have performed poorly away from their home crowd, acquiring just eight points from a possible 42. The Rats will be looking to improve their record on the road. They have an overall record of 29 played, 11 wins, 4 drawn, and 14 defeats.
Players to watch
Kolbeinn Sigporsson will lead the AZ attack pack. He is the leading goal-scorer for his side, scoring 11 goals in 28 matches. His performances have attracted interests from top European clubs. The prolific striker will be the key player for the home side.
The Breda’s outfit will have to rely on their forward, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Matthew-Amoah-c24812, to score goals for his side. He is the top goal-scorer for the NAC. He has scored nine goals in 23 matches for his side so far this season. He will be looking to add more to his tally
in the upcoming encounter.
Head-to-Head statistics
AZ have remained the better of the two sides. AZ won two of their last five matches against NAC. Two matches ended in stale-mates while the Rats managed to emerge victorious in the remaining fixture.
Prediction
As the season draws towards the end, both sides would be looking to bag all three points to improve their current standings in the league table. However, AZ’s good form suggest that the match will end 2-1 in favour of the home side.
