Alkmaar W form and stats

Alkmaar W's struggle is real here at Sportpark AFC '34 with only 1 point collected from 6 Eredivisie Women games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 0-1-5. It's been an uphill battle for Alkmaar in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the Excelsior Barendrecht W game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat.

In their previous game, the manager C. Dekker led his Alkmaar W to a defeat in the Eredivisie Women match away at FC Twente W. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Sportpark AFC '34. Ahead of that match, Alkmaar W lost 1-4 at home to ADO Den Haag W.

Alkmaar were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Alkmaar has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 3 goals from 6 games. As for conceded goals, Alkmaar W's unpleasant statistic is 18 goals surrendered. Alkmaar's defense is seriously deficient as 18 goals have been conceded in these matches.
