2.09Tip and bets
AZ have been in great form lately and are clearly determined to put up a fight for third place with their opponents – Twente are a direct competitor and today the bet will clearly be on a win. The Cheese Farmers are more than convincing in attack and will clearly be aggressive up front, but Twente are also in great form and have their trump cards up front – the match will certainly be productive.
