We said: PEC Zwolle 0-2 AZ Alkmaar

AZ Alkmaar will enter this match overflowing with confidence after that demolition of Heerenveen last week, and will see this as a fixture they should be coming away from with all three points. We are not expecting another goal-fest here, but do feel that the visitors will earn a fairly comfortable victory. Read more.
