In midweek, AZ were beaten in the Dutch Cup final by Go Ahead Eagles on penalties, after a 1-1 draw in regular time. Troy Parrott opened the scoring in the 54th minute, but they conceded a stoppage-time equalizer.

Carl Hoefkens’ side are on a ten-game winless run in the league, with their last victory coming on 19th January—a 2-1 win over Twente.

All three of their March matches ended in 1-1 draws, against Sparta Rotterdam, Almere, and Groningen. They followed that with a 3-1 loss to Ajax earlier this month, while last weekend’s clash with Go Ahead Eagles also ended 1-1. Leo Sauer has scored in two of those recent matches.
