Head to Head

This will be the first-ever meeting between Tottenham and AZ Alkmaar.

Tottenham Form

Tottenham are third in the Europa League standings and are one of just five teams to win both opening games. Spurs defeated Qarabag 3-0 at home and Ferencváros 2-1 away.

Those victories came during a five-match winning run in all competitions, with 13 goals scored. Spurs’ only loss in their last seven came at Brighton before the international break, where they lost 3-2.

The North Londoners hit back with a dominant 4-1 comeback home victory over West Ham. Spurs had 1.44-0.86 XG and Dejan Kulusevski, Yves Bissouma and Son Heung-Min struck to secure three points.

Tottenham Injuries

Midfielder Wilson Odobert is unavailable due to injury.

AZ Alkmaar Form

AZ Alkmaar have notched three points from their opening two Europa League games this season. The Dutch outfit beat Elfsborg 3-2 and lost 2-0 at Athletic Bilbao.

The loss in Bilbao was part of Alkmaar’s current four-match losing run, with seven goals conceded. Maarten Martens’ team also suffered a 2-1 loss to Utrecht and a 1-0 defeat to Fortuna Sittard.

Alkmaar lost 2-1 against PSV Eindhoven on Saturday and were second-best with 5-17 shots and 25% possession. The Cheese Farmers were 2-0 down after 22 minutes and Denso Kasius scored a 90th-minute consolation.

AZ Alkmaar Injuries

Defenders Bruno Martins Indi, Mees de Witand forward Lequincio Zeefuik are ruled out.

Verdict

Tottenham v AZ

Tottenham have shown their strength in the Europa League with two strong wins this season. AZ Alkmaar’s defence looks shaky and Spurs can take advantage in North London.
