AZ Alkmaar Team News
AZ Alkmaar’s performance in the UEFA Conference League group stage has been well below the club’s expectations. The hint of a weak season was evident in the first match in Mostar when AZ, after leading 3:0 at halftime, experienced an incredible decline in their game, conceding four goals in the second half for a 4:3 defeat. The only points the home team secured were against Legia, where they clinched a 1:0 victory. However, they then faced two expected defeats against the strongest team in the group, Aston Villa.
Despite these results, AZ can still secure second place and advance to Round 32. However, aside from winning their remaining two matches, they also require other match results to align, specifically needing Aston Villa to defeat Legia. This scenario would allow AZ, with a triumph against the Polish representative in the final match, to progress to the next stage of the competition.

Zrinjski Team News
Zrinjski has achieved historic success this season, becoming the first club from Bosnia and Herzegovina to qualify for the group stage of a UEFA competition. After the first match and a phenomenal victory against today’s opponent, AZ Alkmaar, many fans hoped that Zrinjski could progress to the next phase. The home team performed fantastically in England against Aston Villa, losing 1:0 with a goal in the 94th minute. Subsequently, Zrinjski suffered two defeats against Legia, with scores of 2:0 and 2:1, significantly reducing their chances of advancing in the competition, almost relegating them to theoretical possibilities.
Additionally, the visitors have been performing well in the national championship, currently occupying the second position after 15 matches, trailing the league leaders, Borac Banja Luka, by four points. After this European autumn, it’s evident that Zrinjski’s primary goal will be to defend their title as champions of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
