Round six in the 2026-27 Eredivisie starts with the struggling promoted side Willem II visiting runaway leaders Alkmaar on Friday. This match at AFAS Stadion between the 1st-placed ‘Cheese Farmers’ and the 16th-placed ‘Super Pitchers’ is likely to produce goals, and our match prediction is over 3.5 goals.
Ahead of this round, Alkmaar have a 100% winning record with 15 points (W5) and are two points above PSV Eindhoven. Willem have just one point from their four games (D1, L3) and are stuck in the relegation zone, although they have a match in hand over teams around them.
Alkmaar had to come from 2-1 behind to defeat Heerenveen 3-2 last Sunday to make it five wins out of five to start the league campaign. This is one of their best starts to an Eredivisie campaign in the club’s history, and the hosts will look to extend that sequence. Crucially, they have won both league games at this venue this season and haven’t lost here in any competition since January.
Willem lost 3-0 at home against Excelsior last weekend to make it three defeats out of four to start the season. Their only point of this campaign came at home, which is a concern for the newly-promoted side, although they have won 2-1 in their last visit to this venue in November 2024.

Our AZ Alkmaar vs Willem II Prediction
It’s the biggest mismatch between teams, as Alkmaar start the round with a 100% winning record, while Willem have just one point to their name. The stark contrast in their forms is underlined by their records – Alkmaar scoring 3.2 goals per game while Willem are conceding 3.3 per game. That explains the low returns on backing an Alkmaar win, so we are dipping into the goals market.
Three of the last four Eredivisie matches between these sides at this venue saw four or more goals, so our AZ Alkmaar vs Willem II prediction is over 3.5 goals.
