Willem II vs AZ H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

Willem II took on AZ in the Eredivisie of Netherlands on February 2. The match finished with AZ victorious, 0-2.

Troy Parrott scored the first goal of the game from the penalty spot on the 28th minute of the match, handing AZ the advantage. A goal from Sven Mijnans followed, setting the final scoreline at 0-2.

Tensions run high as Willem II and AZ meet again, 3 months after the previous Eredivisie match that concluded in a 1-2 victory for Willem II. Willem II head into this encounter off the back of a defeat to RKC on January 26, hoping to recover their form, but they remain winless over their last three matches. Resolving issues at the back will be vital for improvement, particularly since their backline remains a concern, having conceded goals in each of their last five matches.

AZ are on a troubling run just like their oponents, heading into this match following two back-to-back defeats to Ferencvaros and Sparta Rotterdam.

This Eredivisie clash shines a light on the players who have played crucial roles in creating and converting chances for Willem II and AZ in this campaign. Willem II’s offensive unit, under Peter Maes’s management, has leaned on Ringo Meerveld, their main scorer, and Kyan Vaesen, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Meerveld has already scored four goals in Eredivisie this season, as Doodeman continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with three assists. Cisse Sandra, Jeremy Bokila and Jesse Bosch have also played key roles, contributing with goals and assists to fuel Willem II’s attack.

Meanwhile, AZ’s attacking options, crafted under Maarten Martens’s leadership, have been bolstered by Troy Parrott, the team’s top scorer, and Sven Mijnans, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. With ten goals in Eredivisie, Parrott is AZ’s top scorer in the league, with Koopmeiners leading their creative tally in the league 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.
