AZ Alkmaar welcome AFC Ajax, Eredivisie
champs three years running, to the AFAS Stadion in Alkmaar this Sunday.
After a 4-2 defeat the previous week AZ will be looking to limit their
opponents shot attempts and possibly not lose possession so much. Ajax
on the other hand… well, they’ll want more of the same please.
Although the season is only in its
second week we may already know what to expect from these two clubs.
With Ajax not yet losing any of the big names that were discussed this
summer they can only continue on the same path. Of their 747 passes last
week, 87% (655) were short passes, at an average unbroken pass streak
of 7. Admittedly this was against a weaker opponent than AZ. Yet the
fact that they were only dispossessed 5 times boggles the mind.
Meanwhile AZ faced a club that isn’t nearly as proficient in close
quarters and rely more on crosses than Ajax do. Combine that with the
unfamiliarity of AZ’s new center back pairing and the Amsterdam squad
could run riot on Sunday.
Something else that could be very
significant, AZ’s forwards and midfield only made 2 interceptions in
their previous match against Heerenveen. They relied on their defense to
stop the Super Frisian’s attack. Allow Ajax’s forwards to roam free
into the final third of the pitch like that and the only logical result
will be goals.
Alkmaar did find some positives within
last weeks 4-2 loss. American forward Aron Jóhannsson has scored a goal
and assisted on another. Couple that with the goal he scored against
Ajax two weeks ago in the Super Cup and he looks the real deal. The
other bright spot for AZ has been twenty one year old midfielder Nemanja
Gudelj. Joining from NAC Breda in July he has slotted right into a
starting position. He was the only non-defender that attempted more than
30 passes and finished with an 82% success rate.
Luckily there are no key injuries being
reported for either squad, this will allow us to see the two clubs as
they are meant to be this year.
