Match summary

AZ Alkmaar vs FC Twente is the Eredivisie fixture at the AFAS Stadion on Sunday 25 October 2026, Matchday 10, and our pick is a home win. In the double chance we go with either side to win, no draw.

Why this pick?

Our model comes down on the side of an AZ Alkmaar win, starting with what they create in the final third: big chances and touches in the opposition box have been above the league average over their last five matches, with home advantage on top. The clear counterweight is Twente's own attacking output, with shots and box touches clearly higher than the competition's norm. What restores the pick is AZ's defending — few shots and few big chances conceded — and a table that has them second on 20 points. The call is a moderate one rather than an emphatic verdict.

Both teams to score: Both teams to score is how our model reads the matchup: Twente's recent goals scored and conceded, their expected-goals form and the attacking numbers on both sides all point the same way.
