AZ Alkmaar vs NAC Breda prediction and betting tips on April 24, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 30th round of the Dutch Eredivisie on April 24, 2025, AZ Alkmaar will face NAC Breda. The hosts aim to secure a win against an opponent from the lower part of the table.
Our Prediction for AZ Alkmaar vs NAC Breda
The team from Alkmaar has been consistently solid. Last season, they finished with 65 points, surpassing even Ajax and ultimately taking fourth place. Their current rivals spent five years in the second division and managed to return to the Eredivisie thanks to the playoffs—even though they finished only eighth in the regular season!
Few believed in such a newcomer. However, Karl Hoefkens’ side managed to pick up points quite actively and has in fact already ensured its Eredivisie place for next season. Perhaps this relaxed the players, as they haven’t recorded a win since the end of January. Martens’ players reached the final of the Dutch Cup, but on Monday lost there to Go Ahead Eagles on penalties. In the Europa League, they were eliminated at the Round of 16 stage by Tottenham, despite beating them at home. Their recent Eredivisie form has also been disappointing—it’s clearly no longer a priority. Still, failing to win in six consecutive matches is a definite setback.
Parrott and company average 1.62 goals scored per game while conceding 1.14. The visitors show almost the opposite ratio—1.07 scored to 1.69 conceded.
