AZ Alkmaar - Mariupol Prediction, Picks and Tips
In order to get a victory that allows him to win the series against the tough Ukrainian cast such as Mariupol, this Thursday the Dutch cast of AZ jumps to the engraving of the AFAS Stadion in Alkmaar, in game that corresponds to the return for the Third Round UEFA Europa League Qualification.
Those led by Arne Slot got a good result in the first leg, because they returned home with a tie to zero goals, yes, the Dutch cast knows that it can not be trusted, since receiving a goal would force you to have to Win the game, so this Thursday you have to be very smart and keep up this season's start. And we say this, because AZ comes from getting a new victory last weekend, when he defeated 0-2 in his visit to RKC Waalwijk in which he showed his offensive potential, since they added their third victory in their last four games , where AZ was present on the scoreboard nine times. But that's not all, since the Dutch cast has also shown strength in defense, because they added their fourth game without receiving goals, and they need to continue maintaining this good football performance to get a result that allows them to return to a phase of UEFA Europa League groups, something they have not achieved since the 2016/17 edition when they reached the 16th, being eliminated by the French cast of Olympique Lyon.
For their part, those led by Aleksander Babich have been struggling to get victories, and we do not say it only because of a goalless draw in the first leg, but last weekend they could not win and they had to settle for a new tie but this time to a goal, in his visit to Karpaty. With this result, the Ukrainian cast has only been able to get a victory in their last five games and where two of them ended in losses, both being a visitor, against Kolos Kovalivka 2-1 and Zorya 3-1, so it looks complicated that they can go to get a good result to Holland that allows them to get close to classifying for the first time a group stage of UEFA Europa League, in this is their second participation in this contest.
