AZ has not scored in the seven official matches played this season. On Thursday, August 22, 2019, the Europa League playoff tour is played, and AZ Alkmaar vs Royal Antwerp at the “AFAS Stadion”.

Alkmaar: Form of moment, last results, statistics

In seven official games played by AZ in this competitive season, he has four wins and three draws. Interestingly, all these draws ended in the same, 0-0, and two of them played in the Europa League. Moreover, in all official matches he has 0 goals received. Indeed, the names of opponents in both the European Cups and the Eredivisie say nothing. This is what happened in the previous tour, when the team that Alkmaar sent home was called Mariupol. It was 2-0 overall, a score he checked playing on his own field.

Antwerp: Form of moment, last results, statistics

Ladislau Boloni had a good double with Viktoria Plzen, the team in front of which he had extended. 2-2 overall was the score, Dieumerci Mbokani being the man who made the difference, with a goal scored in the prolongation. It was a failure that qualified because of the number of goals scored on the move. He also doubled this qualification in the Europa League playoff with a successful championship. At the end of last week, the same Mbokani signed one of the 2-0 victory goals in front of St. Truiden and his team took 4th place.

AZ Alkmaar vs Antwerp Picks

Don’t go naked in the seven official matches played this season says something. However, Antwerp seems to me to be a much smarter and better team than all of AZ’s opponents. But there are problems for Belgians when they play away, there they lost two of the three matches played.

Our Prediction: 1

Odds: 1.75
