AZ vs Willem II Tilburg Prediction Eredivisie · Sep 11, 2026

Analysis

AZ have made a flawless start to the season: four wins from four, 13 goals scored and only 3 conceded, which puts them top of the Eredivisie on 12 points with a +10 goal difference. Their recent run reads 5-2 against Go Ahead Eagles, 2-0 at Fortuna Sittard, 4-1 at FC Utrecht and 2-0 against ADO Den Haag — three or more goals in two of the last four and clean sheets in two. Willem II arrive 15th with a single point from three matches, having been thrashed 4-1 at home by NEC and 4-1 away at Go Ahead Eagles before salvaging a 2-2 draw with SC Heerenveen. Nine goals conceded in three games is the headline problem against an attack averaging over three per match. The one caveat for backers of a shutout is that Willem II have found the net in every fixture so far, and AZ did ship two at home to Go Ahead Eagles, so a consolation is realistic. A comfortable home win with goals at both ends is the most logical outcome.
