AZ Alkmaar host Telstar in the Eredivisie, with the home side pushing near the top of the table while the visitors are scrapping for points to stay clear of the lower reaches. This game is clearly a different task for each side. AZ Alkmaar are still unbeaten in the league, scoring 17 goals, but they were just checked by a midweek defeat in Europe. Telstar, meanwhile, have not won in 5 straight games, their attack is blunt and they concede more than they score. The home side are likely to pour forward from the start, but Telstar's first-half away record is not that bad, so they should hold out in the first half and then see how long they can withstand the mounting pressure after the break.
