AZ Alkmaar had a series of terrible results in October, but for the last few weeks, they have been excellent, with seven games without defeat in a row. In the previous match, AZ Alkmaar won 3-1 at home in the cup against Groningen. The home side finished the match with 15 shots at the goal, more than the opponent, so AZ Alkmaar deserved all three points and surely additionally improved the team's confidence. 

Like AZ Alkmaar, Twente is also one of the top six Eredivisie teams. And like AZ, they are also in excellent form, as the team from Enschede lost only two of the last 11 matches. In the previous game, they won 3-2 on the road in the cup against Katwijk. The home side is part of the third level of football in the Netherlands, so Twente's supporters surely expected a better performance against amateurs.
