Command Analysis

RKC Waalwijk

Current form
Waalwijk could hardly have set ambitious goals for the season, but at the same time they were certainly not on the list of the main candidates for relegation. The start of the season is turning out to be very difficult – Henk Fraser’s team started with a crushing 1:5 defeat to PSV. After that, Waalwijk lost to Groningen (1:2) and Go Ahead Eagles (0:2), thus ending up in the penultimate place in the table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Oscar Zawada and Yassine Oukili are disqualified.
Interesting trends for betting

- Waalwijk have lost their last three matches against AZ
Probable line-up : Houwen - Lelyveld, Van Ejima, Van den Buys, Meyers - Rumeratu, Weidman, Cleonise, Van der Venne, Lokesa - Margaret.

AZ Alkmaar

Current form
AZ are definitely counting on fighting for a place in the top three this season and have looked more than solid in the opening period. Maarten Mertens' team started with two wins in a row over Almere City (1:0) and Nijmegen (1:0), but they were unable to build on their success in the last round. A goalless draw with Groningen has prevented the "cheese farmers" from rising above fourth place in the table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Maxim Dekker is disqualified.
Interesting trends for betting

- AZ have not conceded in three matches this season
Probable line-up : Oduro - Maikuma, Goes, Penetra, Wolfe - Clasie, Koopmeiners, Sadiq, Mijnans, Van Bommel - Parrott.

1.39Tip and bets
AZ are in excellent shape at the start of the season, which cannot be said about Waalwijk, who have not yet scored a single point. It is obvious that the "cheese farmers" will play only for victory in a confrontation with such an opponent and will certainly achieve it without problems - the visitors are in terrible shape and have the poison of personnel losses, it makes sense to count on a confident victory for the favorite.
We think that the guests have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) on AZ . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.85
Bet on total
AZ is certainly the favorite and will play only to win - the hosts will certainly put enormous pressure on the opponent's not very reliable defense already in the first half. The hosts have minimal chances to play to zero, Waalwijk concede a lot and regularly, but at the same time they will certainly take risks, it is quite possible for them to play for a consolation goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.79
Bet on corners
AZ are the favourites and will probably dominate for the entire 90 minutes – the visitors should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners on AZ. This outcome is offered for 1.65
