Jong AZ

LWDLLL 📉

Jong AZ will be wanting a better result here after a 2-1 Eerste Divisie loss in their previous game against RKC Waalwijk.

In that match, Jong AZ managed 48% possession and 9 shots at goal with 2 on target. The only player to score for Jong AZ was Frej Elkjær (40'). At the other end, RKC Waalwijk had 11 attempts on goal with 4 on target. Harrie Kuster (2') and Jesper Uneken (14') scored for RKC Waalwijk.

Fixtures with Jong AZ have proved to be absorbing encounters lately with plenty of scoring the rule rather than the exception. Over their past six clashes, a grand total of 20 goals have gone in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.33 goals per game) with 9 of them belonging to Jong AZ.

Their past results show that Jong AZ:

• have not won against MVV when playing them at home in the previous 2 league matches.
• are unbeaten in the league by MVV in their previous 2 games.
• are without a win at home for the past 9 matches in the league. Something needs to change.

MVV

WLLDDW ⚖

MVV will go into the game after a 2-1 Eerste Divisie win vs VVV-Venlo in their last match.

In that game, MVV managed 51% possession and 10 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. For MVV, the goals were scored by Sven Braken (56') and Stan Van Dessel (90'). At the other end, VVV-Venlo had 15 attempts at goal with 2 on target. Bjorn van Zijl (86') was the scorer for VVV-Venlo.

Looking at their form, and MVV have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 11 goals in all. Defensively, MVV could really do with shoring things up. That pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward into this next game, though.

🤜🤛 Head to head

If we look at their past head to head duels stretching back to 28/04/2023, there has been little to separate the clubs with Jong AZ winning 3 of those games, MVV 3 and 0 being drawn in regulation time.

Loads of goals were seen in those games, too - 23 in total at an average of 3.83 goals per meeting.

The previous league match featuring these sides was Eerste Divisie match day 16 on 21/11/2025 and the score finished MVV 1-3 Jong AZ.

In that match, MVV had 43% possession and 7 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. Their only player on the scoresheet was Camil Mmaee (5').

Jong AZ had 15 shots at goal with 7 on target. Jasper Hartog (11'), Kevin Toppenberg (59') and Sem van Duijn (62') scored.

The match was refereed by Kevin Puts.

📰 Team News: MVV

Thanks to a mainly available group of players, there is only a single fitness issue for the MVV manager Peter van den Berg to be concerned with. Djairo Tehubijuluw (unknown injury) misses out for this game.

🔮 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that MVV will likely be able to breach the defence of this Jong AZ outfit, but that probably won’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We’re expecting both teams to score in a 2-1 win for Jong AZ at full-time. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
