Feyenoord vs AZ Alkmaar

Feyenoord welcome AZ Alkmaar to Rotterdam on October 10 in an early Eredivisie summit clash. AZ sit top with 19 points from seven games, just two clear of second-placed Feyenoord, with both sides still unbeaten in the league this season. Feyenoord have been clinical domestically, thrashing PEC Zwolle 7-0 and FC Utrecht 5-0, though a 1-5 Champions League defeat to Barcelona dented confidence midweek. AZ have been just as sharp, winning six of their seven league matches, including a 5-2 win over Go Ahead Eagles, despite a Europa League loss to Sunderland. Up top, Anis Hadj Moussa and Gjivai Zechiël each have five league goals for Feyenoord, while Ro-Zangelo Daal leads AZ's attack with four. Feyenoord have also won three of the last five meetings between these sides without losing. Our prediction: 3-1
