AZ II vs Emmen: match statistics
The match shapes up to be an even clash between two teams from the bottom part of the table, struggling with defensive problems. AZ II occupies the 18th position and has a dismal home record with a 79% loss rate at home, yet their average xG (1.69) in home matches is higher than Emmen's away (1.41). Emmen is placed 15th with a better overall record, but the form of both teams in the last five matches is poor - AZ II earned 1.4 points per match, and Emmen just 0.8. Both squads have an identical FTS% of 36% and a similar average of goals conceded (2.14 vs 2.07), suggesting an open encounter with many goals. Taking into account AZ II's possession advantage (59% vs 49%), but simultaneously their terrible home results and Emmen's slightly better away form in the longer term, the most likely scenario seems to be a draw or a minimal victory for one of the sides.
