AZ Alkmaar aim to continue strong start against Fortuna Sittard
Fortuna Sittard and AZ Alkmaar meet on matchday three of the Eredivisie season, with both sides looking to build on their early form. The fixture takes place at the Fortuna Sittard Stadion as the league campaign gathers pace.
Fortuna Sittard have begun their Eredivisie campaign with a mixed bag of results. A recent 3-1 victory over Cambuur at home will have provided a boost, following a 2-2 draw away at PSV Eindhoven. Their pre-season friendly results showed a tendency to concede goals, with losses against Metz and Olympiacos, but also demonstrated an ability to find the net themselves.
AZ Alkmaar have enjoyed a flying start to their Eredivisie season, securing two wins from their opening two matches. A commanding 4-1 away victory against FC Utrecht followed a comfortable 2-0 home win over ADO Den Haag. They also claimed a significant 4-0 win against PSV Eindhoven in the Super Cup earlier in August, showcasing a potent attacking threat and defensive solidity.
Both sides are expected to field their strongest available XIs for this encounter, with no high-impact absences reported for either Fortuna Sittard or AZ Alkmaar. Fortuna Sittard are anticipated to line up with a formation featuring forwards Lequincio Zeefuik and Ole Romeny, supported by midfielders Mohammed Ihattaren, Yassin Oukili, and Philip Brittijn. Defensively, Siebe Wylin, Justin Hubner, Syb van Ottele, and Ivo Pinto are expected to provide cover for goalkeeper Mattijs Branderhorst. AZ Alkmaar's expected lineup includes forwards Mexx Meerdink and Weslley Pinto, with a midfield unit comprising Ro-Zangelo Daal, Kees Smit, Peer Koopmeiners, Dave Kwakman, and Lewis Schouten. Mateo Chavez, Wouter Goes, and Elijah Dijkstra are likely to form the defensive line in front of goalkeeper Jari De Busser.
The head-to-head record between Fortuna Sittard and AZ Alkmaar suggests a history of competitive matches. AZ Alkmaar secured a 2-0 victory in their most recent Eredivisie meeting in April 2026. However, earlier in the 2025-26 season, Fortuna Sittard claimed a high-scoring 4-3 win. The previous season saw one win apiece, with Fortuna Sittard winning 1-0 at home and AZ Alkmaar taking the spoils 1-2 away, indicating that these fixtures often go down to the wire.
With both teams expected to deploy attacking formations, the match could be an open affair. AZ Alkmaar's recent strong performances suggest they will look to assert control early on, leveraging their attacking prowess. Fortuna Sittard, playing at home, will be keen to make their mark and will likely look to exploit any defensive vulnerabilities. The midfield battle will be crucial in dictating the tempo and flow of the game, with both sides possessing players capable of influencing proceedings.
