AZ Alkmaar vs Roma Preview


AZ Alkmaar are very hard to beat and Roma are yet to win on the road this season. I think both teams will be happy to avoid defeat, a draw likely in the Europa League.

HTH


This will be the first match between AZ Alkmaar and Roma.

Form


AZ Alkmaar haven’t lost in 11 matches which includes a 1-1 draw against Galatasaray in the Europa League. The point against the Turkish club followed a 3-1 victory against Fenerbahce.

Maarten Martens’ side have won five consecutive games at home, beating Ajax 2-1 and Twente 1-0 at AFAS Stadion. Their previous home game was in the Dutch Cup, Wouter Goes and Mexx Meerdink scoring in a 2-0 victory over Ajax.

AZ drew 0-0 at Utrecht on Saturday, Sven Mijnans hitting the woodwork as they ended with 12-9 shots.

Roma have steadied the ship since 73-year-old Claudio Ranieri became their third manager of the season. They are unbeaten in six games and won six straight at home.

I Giallorossi haven’t won on the road all season, five defeats and eight draws away from Rome. Their futility on the road means they haven't won away from home since April 2024, a run of 17 games.

Ranieri ’s side have picked up points in their previous two road games, 1-1 at AC Milan and 2-2 at Bologna. They beat Genoa 3-1 on Friday, Artem Dovbyk and Stephan El Shaarawy on target as they ended with 1.80-0.49 expected goals.

Team News


Defensive midfielder Kristijan Belic remains out injured with Peer Koopmeiners and Jordy Clasie to continue in AZ’s engine room.

Midfielder Bryan Cristante is still out with an ankle injury for Ranieri’s side.

Verdict

AZ Alkmaar are unbeaten in 11 games and Roma haven’t won on the road this season. I think both teams will be happy to avoid defeat, a draw likely in the Europa League.
