Tottenham vs AZ Alkmaar Preview

After a 1-0 loss in the first leg, Tottenham are backed to get to winning ways when they host AZ Alkmaar in the second leg of Europa League's Round of 16.

Form

Tottenham have been on an inconsistent run of form and come into this fixture on the back of an entertaining 2-2 draw at home to Bournemouth in the Premier League.

Tottenham have won just four of their last nine games in all competitions while they have continued to struggled in defence as they have kept just one clean sheet in their last seven games in all competitions.

Ange Postecoglou's side have won five of their nine Europa League games this season with two defeats and two draws.

Six of their nine Europa League games this season have seen over 2.5 goals while the Spurs have scored two or more goals in three of their four Europa League home games.

AZ Alkmaar head into this match on a good streak of form, winning seven of their last ten games in all competitions including the 1-0 win over Tottenham in the first leg.

They have been a free scoring side, having scored 2+ goals in seven of their last ten games in all competitions.

AZ have been poor in defence with just two clean sheets kept in eleven of their Europa League games this season with both teams finding the back of the net in seven of those matches.

The Dutch side have failed to win any of their five away Europa League games this season.

Verdict

Tottenham v AZ

AZ have conceded in all five of their away Europa League games this season. With their poor away record in this competition, I'll be backing a motivated Tottenham for over 1.5 Team Goals.
