Heerenveen Preview – Can Heerenveen grab 1st leg lead?
After having had to endure a tough and worrying seven-match losing streak in the Eredivisie, Heerenveen are seemingly back on an even keel heading into this Europa Conference League play-off semi-final as the hosts have lost just a further two games in their subsequent 10 matches.
Both of these defeats were away from home, but perhaps significantly, one of them was a recent 2-1 loss away at tonight’s opponents, AZ, whom they’ve lost to in each of their previous five meetings on the trot.
AZ Preview – Can AZ break winless spell?
Three draws and a loss have made up AZ’s last four games in the Eredivisie with draws against Sparta Rotterdam, Ajax and Utrecht while also losing 3-1 at home to Waalwijk but the bigger picture shows AZ have suffered just three defeats out of their last 23 matches overall.
In addition, form and results away from home have been very steady indeed, losing just once in their last 10 outings on the road and this gives AZ an excellent opportunity to at least keep the scores level ahead of next week’s 2nd leg tie.
