AZ vs Utrecht H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

AZ go head-to-head with Utrecht in the Eredivisie of Netherlands on October 26, with the match kicking off at 15:45 UTC.

All eyes turn to the pitch as the upcoming encounter sees AZ and Utrecht prepare to meet again, 9 months after their previous Eredivisie meeting which ended in a draw 0-0. AZ come into this match following a defeat to NEC today, looking to bounce back with a stronger performance, but they remain winless over their last three matches. They have a challenging set of fixtures leading up to the match against Utrecht though, including Slovan and AEK Larnaca in UEFA Conference League and Ajax and Telstar in Eredivisie. Their performances across these fixtures could be a key factor in their preparations for Utrecht. A more organized backline could be the foundation for success, since their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have allowed goals in four consecutive matches.

Utrecht come into this encounter after splitting points with Heerenveen today. They have several key matches to navigate before facing AZ though, including Volendam and Feyenoord in Eredivisie and SK Brann in UEFA Europa League, fixtures that are likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with AZ. Their defense has shown cracks, conceding goals in their last four matches in a row.

This Eredivisie clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of AZ and Utrecht. AZ’s attacking options, shaped by Maarten Martens’s vision, have been bolstered by Troy Parrott, the team’s top scorer, and Sven Mijnans, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. AZ’s top scorer in Eredivisie, Parrott, has three goals this season, with Mijnans leading their creative tally in the league with four assists. AZ have also relied on Mexx Meerdink, Ibrahim Sadiq and Denso Kasius to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, Utrecht’s Souffian El Karouani and top finisher Victor Jensen have played important roles in ensuring their attack, under Ron Jans’s guidance, remains effective. Jensen has emerged as Utrecht’s leading scorer in Eredivisie this season, netting three goals, with El Karouani leading their creative tally in the league with four assists. Adding further support are Gjivai Zechiel, David Min and Derry Murkin, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.
