Season ticket holders at AFAS Trainingscomplex haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Jong AZ languishing in the 16th position so far. The guesting NEC will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Jong AZ and NEC.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting NEC have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 9-5-11 (win-draw-loss) from 25 matches.

The Jong AZ supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Jong Ajax in Eerste Divisie and win 3-2. A 1-1 draw away before that, with Go Ahead Eagles the opponent.

1-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for NEC in their Eerste Divisie matches away. With two straight losses from their last two away games, NEC are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

A quick return to home after this game, as NEC are hosting MVV Maastricht in the Eerste Divisie only four days away.
