AZ vs Twente Match Preview
AZ and FC Twente are the two most recent Dutch champions. Title holders Twente hope to be able to grab the lead again this weekend, because top ranked PSV play host to number three ranked Ajax on Sunday.Twente face a tough job at AZ however. The Tukkers have not been able to win in their last seven Eredivisie visits to Alkmaar, which makes AZ their toughest recent away opponent. The last Twente win in Alkmaar was in 2002, when the visitors won 2-1.
Last week Twente drew 1-1 at home against NEC. Bryan Ruiz was back in Michel Preud’homme’s squad, but the Costa Rican striker needs time to return at full strength after recovering from a knee injury.
AZ defeated Twente 2-1 in Enschede this season. The Alkmaar team managed to beat Twente twice in one season three times before, but the last time was in the 1982-1983 season.
