Jong AZ form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Jong AZ so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 4-2-11 (win-draw-lose). Three has not been a lucky number for Jong as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Jong PSV match.

Franken was the last player to score for the away team. Jong AZ haven't scored a league goal in the last 270 minutes.

This fixture can not go any worse than the previous one, the home defeat versus ADO Den Haag with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Schouten got a match rating of 7.64 in that game, top player of the team. Schouten hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against FC Emmen wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 17 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Jong AZ have seen the ball go into their own net 25 times on the road. Jong has visited these top teams five times, and 4 of 5 has ended with 2 goals or more!
