Best Tip: AZ Alkmaar to win

As training goes on this week and the AZ Alkmaar players ready themselves for this clash, the bookies have predicted success for them. The odds and our pre-match stats below point in that direction too, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) record we use in our predictive algorithms. The AFAS Stadion has not been an easy place to go for Beer Sheva in the past, and we we'd back more of the same on Thursday evening. A win / draw / win home win is the way to go.
