Ferencvaros vs AZ Alkmaar Prediction & Betting Tips (30 January)

The Ferencvaros are still in the top 24, being 22nd, but they have clearly gained two wildcards by losing the two previous days against Eintracht Frankfurt last week 2-0, and a manita on the pitch of PAOK Salonika 5-0 . This evening, even a draw could a priori be enough unless the direct competitors also concoct missteps. No championship last weekend. It will only resume this weekend against MTK Budapest. As a reminder, the evening locals are engaged in a mano a mano with the Puskas Academy in the race for the title.

 The Dutch from Alkmaar carried out a very good operation last week by winning by just one goal over AS Roma 1-0. A result which allows them to see it coming now by being 14th with 11 points, 2 lengths ahead of their Hungarian counterpart in the evening. We can even say that AZ is on an upward slope, having a very good run of 12 matches without defeat in all competitions, including 8 wins. Last weekend, Alkmaar hosted Sparta Rotterdam in the championship, an important match in the race for the podium and for the unbeaten run to follow. 

Probably a hard blow for Ferencvaros who had to see their starting goalkeeper Dibugz leave the field last week. He thus joined the Nigerian Kehinde (2 goals, 4 assists in the league) in the infirmary. Author of 5 goals in the competition, local international Varga will be operational like Brazilian striker Saldanha (6 goals in the league) and Malian international Traoré (3 goals in the league). Note that winter recruits Joseph (ex-Grenoble) and Naby Keita (ex-Werder, Liverpool) are not qualified to participate in the competition. The important defender Kasius and the long-term absentee Weterveld are injured and will be missed.

call for this part. The young talent Ruben van Bommel (3 goals in C3) no longer appears on the match sheets in recent weeks and seems to be forced to withdraw from this trip to Hungary. Ditto for Ibrahim Sadiq (4 goals + 3 assists in the Eredivisie) and for the young crack Schouten. AZ will be able to count on its Irish international striker Troy Parrott (10 goals in the league), author of his 2nd goal in C3 against AS Roma, coming off the bench in addition to that and on Mexx Meerdink (5 pawns in the league).
