AZ face Ajax in the Eredivisie of Netherlands on February 8. The match is set to start at 13:30 UTC.
Fans are eager for the showdown as AZ and Ajax square off once more, 25 days after their National Cup encounter that concluded in a 6-0 victory for AZ. AZ, fresh from a National Cup win against Twente last Tuesday, step into this clash with optimism. Their recent victory has come with a cost though, as their backline remains a concern, conceding goals in their last three home matches in a row.
Ajax prepare for this game after drawing with Excelsior last Sunday. Their backline has lacked consistency, having conceded goals in each of their last ten away matches.
This Eredivisie clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of AZ and Ajax. AZ’s attacking options, carefully orchestrated by Leeroy Echteld, have been bolstered by Troy Parrott, the team’s top scorer, and Sven Mijnans, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Parrott has emerged as AZ’s leading scorer in Eredivisie this season, netting eleven goals, while Mijnans has been their leading creator in the competition with five assists. Mees De Wit, Mexx Meerdink and Isak Jensen have supported the attack well, combining for important goals and assists throughout the campaign.
Meanwhile, Mika Godts and Oscar Gloukh have been pivotal for Ajax’s attack, with Fred Grim at the helm, combining to deliver important goals and assists. In Eredivisie, Godts has been Ajax’s standout scorer with ten goals, and has also shown his creativity, leading the team with seven assists this campaign. Supporting them are Wout Weghorst, Davy Klaassen and Kenneth Taylor, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Ajax’s attack.
