AZ, Recent FormAZ manager Pascal Jansen will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Heracles Almelo.
It's clear that he will be very satisfied with his side's performance over the last 6 matches, a spell which has seen them notch up 16 goals and only give 3 away. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.
With 8 goals scored in AZ's last 6 outings in the league, Vangelis Pavlidis has shown a great run of form in finding the back of the net.
Fortuna Sittard, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Fortuna Sittard supremo Danny Buijs after sustaining a heavy 3-0 away loss to Go Ahead Eagles.
He will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 8 games.
The last time these two teams met AZ enforced their superiority over Fortuna Sittard with a comfortable 0-3 win.
AZ will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 11 encounters with Fortunezen.
Fortuna will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 6 times they've visited AZ in the league and not won this away fixture at AFAS Stadion for 6 games in a row.
Vangelis Pavlidis has scored in each of AZ's last 2 league games against Fortuna.
With only Mees de Wit (Foot) and Sem Westerveld (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Pascal Jansen will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Fortuna manager Danny Buijs has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
