Jochem Ritmeester van de Kamp

① AZ Alkmaar dominate possession and edge to a comfortable home win.

② Telstar will have to defend stubbornly, but chances for an upset are slim.

③ The match should be decided by AZ's superiority in quality and depth.

① Telstar's home advantage helps, but NAC Breda bring clinical finishing.

② Midfield battles will be pivotal, with neither side conceding easily.

③ A balanced 1-1 draw seems plausible given recent form and head-to-heads.
