We said: Willem II 0-2 AZ Alkmaar

Willem have failed to show much chance of picking up points this season, especially with a poor record in front of goal particularly in recent weeks, which is likely to continue on Sunday. Alkmaar will be determined to bounce back after a difficult start to March, and they will feel playing a side threatened by relegation is a good opportunity to do so. Read more.
