Goal Statistics

AZ's forwards have been excellent of late, scoring 2 goals or more in 3 consecutive Eredivisie matches. A PG of 2.1 suggests that run should continue on Saturday evening.

AZ's defensive record is very strong, L. Echteld's men having conceded 1 or less in 7 consecutive Eredivisie games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Fortuna Sittard makes sense in this context.
