<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">AZ Alkmaar face VVV-Venlo on a run of four straight Eredivisie victories &#8211; their best run of league victories since a seven-match streak in November/December 2017. Even more impressively, AZ haven’t conceded a league goal in 2019 &#8211; or 366 minutes of Eredivisie football!</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">The hosts have also scored more goals (13) than any other league side this year so far. Their historical record against Venlo is a good one too, with the ‘Cheeseheads’ losing just one of their 12 top-flight home games against their weekend visitors since 1976/77 (W8, D3, L1).</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">Venlo snuck back into European contention after their 2-1 victory over Willem II at the weekend, although this looks like it may be a bridge too far. Indeed, with just one win from their last five away matches (W1, L4) Venlo are the (joint) third-worst form side on the road over that period.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">Furthermore, the visitors have conceded at least two goals in each of their last five away matches, for a shocking average of 3.6 goals conceded per match across the period. Venlo boss Maurice Steijn is also winless in eight H2Hs with opposing manager John van den Brom (D3, L5).</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl"><span class="text--bold">Players to watch:</span> AZ starlet <span class="text--bold">Calvin Stengs</span> has scored in three of his last five appearances in all competitions, and has a goal and two assists from his last two league starts.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">Venlo top-scorer <span class="text--bold">Peniel Mlapa</span> scored twice to earn his side the three points last weekend, he has nine goals from 17 appearances in his maiden Eredivisie campaign.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl"><span class="text--bold">Stat attack:</span> Nearly half (four) of AZ’s ten Eredivisie home matches this season have been 1-1 at half-time.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">None of AZ’s last six Eredivisie home matches have ended level, but curiously, the two that saw both teams score saw the winner concede first.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="summary-vertical fl">Venlo have been losing at both half-time and full-time in six of their last eight away league matches.</td>
