AZ Alkmaar started in the Europa League with a difficult visit to Sunderland, losing narrowly 0:1. Over the weekend, they also suffered their first defeat of the season in the league, losing 0:2 away to Feyenoord. However, at home, they have been almost flawless this season with three wins and one draw so far. Their last home defeat was in January. In European competitions, they have not lost at home in 13 consecutive matches (10 wins and three draws).
Apollon Be'er Sheva started the campaign with a goalless draw "at home" against Dinamo Zagreb. This was yet another home game on neutral ground for the team. Their last visit in Europe ended with an unpleasant loss of 2:5 to Sabah. However, Be'er Sheva rarely does anything memorable in European competitions. They last played in the group stage of the Conference League four years ago but were unable to advance.
Prediction: victory for Alkmaar and over 1.5 goalsAZ Alkmaar is the better team and at home I expect them to show it again, and it's quite possible that they will score more than once and have at least two goals in the match.
