General match analysis
AZ II have a clear edge in chance creation at home: their average xG stands at 1.65, compared with Volendam’s away figure of just 1.02, while the hosts also register 14 shots per match versus their opponents’ 7.67. Volendam are in better overall form, winning 3 of their last 5 matches and scoring 14 goals in the process, whereas AZ II have netted 12 goals and suffered 3 defeats. However, the key factor is the visitors’ extremely poor away record: they have lost all 3 matches, conceding an average of 3 goals, with an xG against of 1.91. AZ II are not particularly impressive defensively either, having failed to keep a clean sheet at home and conceding 1.33 goals per match, so Volendam have a realistic chance of scoring. The hosts’ superior average possession of 58% compared with the visitors’ 47%, along with their advantage in the quality of chances created, gives AZ II a slight edge to win.
