PSV vs AZ Alkmaar Prediction: Home team is in excellent form

It’s crowded at the top of the Eredivisie. PSV and Feyenoord lead the round, while champion Ajax has a point less. Right behind the Dutch giants is Twente followed by AZ Alkmaar, all 6 teams are in 4 points difference. Twente and AZ are excellent this season and in the last round before the break due to the World Cup in Qatar, AZ Alkmaar travel tonight to Eindhoven to face PSV, which is in the best form in recent years.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is proving himself more and more as a very interesting and serious coach. This year, he outclassed Ajax 5:3 in the Dutch Super Cup, and in the last round he celebrated in an even more important match. PSV remains the only team in the Netherlands with a positive balance against Ajax (54:52 in victories) and ended a bad series without a championship victory in Amsterdam that lasted four years. It smells like this PSV team is ripe to dethrone Ajax and bring the title back to Eindhoven. PSV is 1st on the table with same number of points as Feyenoord, 30 and has 10 wins and 3 defeats so far. At home this team is unbelievable with 6 wins in 6 matches.

AZ is in 5th position with 26 points, only 4 points less than PSV. Recently this team has dropped his form and in the last 5 matches in the league he has 3 defeats and 2 wins, also he has 2 defeats in a row as visitor so maybe the winter break will come in good time for him. Generally speaking, AZ can be pleased with his performances this season as he has 8 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats so far. This team has potential and can certainly dream for a place in European competitions next season.

Although both teams are doing well and playing well, PSV is in better momentum and after the big win in the last round against Ajax, this team will want to finish the first half of the season with a win on home ground and on the 1st place on the table. AZ Alkmaar has had some troubles recently and at the moment he can’t oppose the furious host.
