AZ Alkmaar vs Hapoel Be’er Sheva prediction

AZ Alkmaar come into this one on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Eredivisie leaders Feyenoord at De Kuip at the weekend. They kicked off their UEFA Europa League campaign with a slender 1-0 defeat to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light last month due to an Enzo Le Fee penalty in the second half.

Israeli outfit Hapoel Be’er Sheva reached the play-off round of the UEFA Champions League in August with victories against Vikingur Reykjavik and then Crvena Zvezda before a 5-2 loss to Sabah in their second-leg in Azerbaijan. They sit fourth in the Israeli Premier League with four victories and a draw in their six matches.

Hapoel Be’er Sheva, as shown in that defeat to Sabah, may benefit from playing in Hungary at a neutral venue, sharing a goalless draw with Dinamo Zagreb a few weeks ago, and so siding with AZ would be the way to go for this one at the AFAS Stadion.
