AZ Alkmaar vs Tottenham Prediction & Betting Tips (6 March)

Despite its rather average assessment of 11 points won in 8 games 3 victory, 2 draws, 3 defeats displayed at the end of the league phase, AZ Alkmaar was still able to win 21st final place in the ranking and continue its route in dams. The Bataves crossed the Turks of Galatasaray there, which they widely dominated during the first leg 4-1. With their big advantage after this success, they then went to keep their invincibility on the return to Istanbul 2-2 to reach these 1/8th finals. At the same time, in Eredivisia, this Dutch training is struggling for 3rd place in the podium. After having aligned 3 successes of rank against Willem II 0-2, the PEC Zwolle 2-0 and the Fortuna Sittard 1-0, the players of Alkmaar will face Heerenveen next weekend.

Logically quoted among the favorites at the start of this Europa League, Tottenham was rather serious during the league phase by winning the 4th place behind Lazio, Bilbao and Manchester United, which allowed him to avoid playing the dams last month. This economy of force was probably not too much for the English who struggled quite clearly in the first league. Indeed, they are not in the second part of the championship table, very far from the Big 4 despite their successes obtained against Manchester United 1-0 and Ipswich Town 1-4. Thursday, they will be opposed to Manchester City to continue their rise in the ranking. 

In terms of Noterlanders, the young talent Addai (19), the promising Ruben Van Bommel (2 goals, 2 assists in the league) and the interesting Meerdink (6 goals in the league) will certainly have to throw in the towel for this meeting. Same scenario for the usual titular goalkeeper absent very long while Westerveld who is still not restored. Absent upon return to Galatasaray, the former international clasia is not guaranteed to be able to play either. Author of 12 goals in Eredivisie and scorer 4 times in this Europa League, the Irishman Troy Parrott is the player to follow in this team even if the Mijnans community (4 league goals, 4 goals in C3) can also be illustrated. Tottenham Spurs also have their share of fairly important absences since the defenders Romero, Van de Ven and Dragusin, the holder holder Solanke (7 goals and 3 PL passes) and the replacement Richarlison (2 goals in PL) are still recovering.

Uncertain against City last week, the international Welshman Ben Davies and the disappointing Werner should be restored but the last city is not qualified for this competition. The Londoners will however be able to rely on the Johnson winger (9 goals and 2 PL passes), on the Swedish Kulusevski (7 goals and 4 PL passes) and on the formidable Maddison (9 goals and 5 PL passes) and his (6 goals and 9 PL passes). Also note the presence of the young tricolor Mathys such, who is still looking for his first under his new colors, and that of the Austrian defender Danso who has settled in the central hinge since his arrival this winter.
