Leo Sauer scored the first goal of the game on the 75th minute of the match, putting NAC ahead. The scoreline was shaped by further goal from Mexx Meerdink, ending the game at 1-1.

As AZ and NAC meet again, the memory of AZ's 1-2 win in their Eredivisie face-off from 5 months ago still lingers. AZ are in a rough patch, heading into this clash after suffering defeats to Go Ahead Eagles, Heracles Almelo and Feyenoord, extending their winless streak to seven games. A more organized backline could be the foundation for success, since their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have been conceding goals for seven consecutive matches now.

NAC come into this fixture having played out a draw against Go Ahead Eagles on April 12. They've had trouble holding their opponents at bay, conceding goals in their last seven matches in a row.

This Eredivisie clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of AZ and NAC. AZ’s top finisher Troy Parrott and Sven Mijnans have played important roles in ensuring their attack, shaped by Maarten Martens’s vision, remains effective. In Eredivisie, Parrott has been AZ’s standout scorer with fourteen goals, as Wolfe continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with five assists. AZ have also relied on Ibrahim Sadiq, Ruben Van Bommel and Mexx Meerdink to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, NAC’s attacking options, guided by Carl Hoefkens, have been bolstered by Elias Omarsson, the team’s top scorer, and Leo Sauer, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Omarsson has emerged as NAC’s leading scorer in Eredivisie this season, netting seven goals, while Leemans remains their top assist provider in the competition with four. Adding further support are Dominik Janosek, Jan Van Den Bergh and Boy Kemper, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.
