While Go Ahead Eagles will be looking to build on last Friday's win and end their losing streak in the Eredivisie, they go up against a solid AZ side who are unbeaten in seven of their last eight meetings. Given the gulf in class and quality between the two sides, we are backing AZ to claim a comfortable win on Sunday.
