One of the main questions left in Eredivisie is who will finish third and get a chance to participate in the Champions League qualifications. Twente have five points ahead of AZ Alkmaar, but the teams will meet on Sunday in Alkmaar, where the home side, with a potential win, could close the gap to only two points.
AZ Alkmaar played well in the previous three months, losing only two of the last 11 matches. Last weekend, Maarten Martens' team won 3-0 on the road against NEC Nijmegen. According to the stats, the teams were pretty even, but the guests were much more efficient, so they secured a win that left them in the race for the third position and Champions League qualifications.
Twente are in great form too as they lost only two of the last nine matches. In the previous game, Twente won 3-1 at home against Almere City. The home side was much better. Joseph Oosting's team had xG of 1.76, while guests had only 0.13, so any other outcome except Twente's easy win would be unfair.
AZ Alkmaar vs Twente pick: AZ Alkmaar to win
AZ Alkmaar are playing great at the home stadium, where they recorded four wins in a row with an 11:2 goal difference. On the other hand, Twente are without a win in the previous three road games. Given AZ Alkmaar's dominant home record and Twente's recent away woes, it seems likely that AZ Alkmaar will emerge victorious when they face Twente on Sunday.
