Fortuna Sittard vs AZ H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

In Eredivisie action, Fortuna Sittard meet AZ on December 21, starting at 15:45 UTC.

All eyes turn to the pitch as the upcoming encounter sees Fortuna Sittard and AZ are set to clash again, 10 months after their previous Eredivisie meeting which AZ won 1-0. Fortuna Sittard are in a rough patch, heading into this clash after suffering defeats to Zwolle and Ajax, unable to secure a win in their last four games. They have a key fixture leading up to the match against AZ though, taking on Almere City FC in National Cup, and the result of this game could have a lasting impact on their mindset ahead of the AZ game. A more organized backline could be the foundation for success, since their backline has lacked consistency, having conceded goals in each of their last four matches.

AZ, in contrast to their opponent's recent struggles, enter the match on a positive note, having secured a victory over Drita in their last outing. Their upcoming schedule leading up to Fortuna Sittard includes Jagiellonia in UEFA Conference League and Excelsior in Eredivisie, fixtures that are likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with Fortuna Sittard.

This Eredivisie clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Fortuna Sittard and AZ. Fortuna Sittard’s attacking options, with Danny Buijs at the helm, have been bolstered by Mohamed Ihattaren, the team’s top scorer, and Paul Gladon, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Ihattaren leads Fortuna Sittard’s scoring charts in Eredivisie this season with four goals, while also excelling as their primary creator, registering three assists in the competition so far. Fortuna Sittard have also relied on Makan Aiko, Kaj Sierhuis and Justin Lonwijk to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, the attacking efforts of AZ, with Maarten Martens steering the side, have been driven by Troy Parrott, the team’s primary goal threat, and Sven Mijnans, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. AZ’s top scorer in Eredivisie, Parrott, has eight goals this season, with Mijnans leading their creative tally in the league with five assists.
