The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Jong AZ so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 3-2-12 (win-draw-lose). Bitter travels for Jong as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the De Graafschap match.

Jong AZ might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. SC Cambuur proved too strong as Jong slumped to a 2-4 defeat in front of their own fans at AFAS Trainingscomplex. Prior to that match, the Jong manager M. Vonk faced defeat when travelling to NEC and losing 2-3.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Jong, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Jong as they have only managed to score 16 times from 17 away games in the league. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Jong AZ's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 44 goals in 17 travels.
