At least so far Sparta Rotterdam is performing as expected, but to achieve its goals they should always look for good things. Therefore, they know that they will need to grate the rest of the championship to be successful in the goals they have set.

At the current round will be no different and that is why they expect to play a qualified football to celebrate a favorable score. In this match Suently Alberto will be left out for being in the medical department.

The away team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 41 points won, after 13 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against PEC Zwolle, by (0‑3). In the last match, they won in a home match against Ajax, by (1‑0). In their last match, for the KNVB Beker, they got a home win against Groene Ster by (3‑0). In the last 8 away league matches AZ has a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so they have won 19 points out of 24 possible.
In this competition, they have a sequence of 7 wins in the last matches and they haven't lost any of the last 6 away matches. In their away matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑2 (4 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 0‑3 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 2 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 14 of the last 17 matches for the Eredivisie, they have reached half‑time in front in 8 of those 14 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 12 of them. In the last 15 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (61'‑75').
So far AZ Alkmaar's performance is good, so much so that they want to keep it that way to achieve positive things at the end of the championship. However, we know the difficulty that competition brings and this makes the team need to show something high level on the field. Regardless of everything the certainty is that they will fight hard throughout the rounds to achieve the goals they have. During their games it is essential to always have determination, intelligence and efficiency to have the scores in their favor. In this match Pantelis Chatzidiakos will be left out for being in the medical department.
