Feyenoord vs AZ Alkmaar Predictions

• Feyenoord score on average 3.2 goals-per-game.
• AZ score 2.6 per-game.
• Feyenoord have 13 points from five home games.

Title rivals meet in Rotterdam

Feyenoord sit third in the Eredivisie and they take on the side immediately above them at De Kuip on Sunday as AZ Alkmaar visit.

The hosts are unbeaten at home with 13 points from five games and AZ have an identical away record.

Something may well have to give here, but the result markets are perhaps best avoided for our main bet based on the two sides’ respective form.

Over 3.5 goals has a chance

Both of these sides have been strong at the back as AZ have the second best defensive record in the league with just five goals conceded in 10 games (PSV have conceded the same amount in 11) and Feyenoord have shipped nine in 11.

However, both have been excellent in attack as Feyenoord score in average 3.2 goals-per-game and at home that figure rises to 3.8, while AZ have been averaging 2.6 goals per-game.

Over 3.5 goals has landed in five of Feyenoord’s last six home games across all competitions, and the fans in Rotterdam could well be in for another entertaining affair on Sunday.

As mentioned earlier, picking a result is tough but home advantage may prove decisive here and a 3-2 win for Feyenoord is the correct score prediction.

De club aan de Maas have won their last six games at this venue and have hit 24 goals in the process, so they can overpower AZ in what should be a competitive affair.
