AZ Alkmaar

Several players are missing for the hosts, with Jordy Clasie, Seiya Maikuma, Lewis Schouten, Mayckel Lahdo, Sven Mijnans, Sem Westerveld, and Jayden Addai all sidelined due to injuries.
Following their 2-2 draw with RKC Waalwijk last time out, head coach Maarten Martens could make some changes to his starting eleven, with youngsters Mexx Meerdink—who came off the bench to score—Ruben van Bommel, and Denso Kasius among those pushing for inclusion from kick-off.
Troy Parrott should once again lead AZ's attack. The Irish marksman has been a game-changer this season. He is the club's top scorer with 14 goals, which is the second-highest among the Eredivisie's top scorers; seven of which have been the crucial first goal of the match.
Feyenoord

Feyenoord will be without at least seven players due to injury. Hugo Bueno, Calvin Stengs, Quinten Timber, Bart Nieuwkoop, Justin Bijlow, Chris Nadje, and Jordan Lotomba are all sidelined.
After their narrow 4-1 victory over Groningen last time out, head coach Robin van Persie may keep the same eleven. Ibrahim Osman, though, is pushing for a start after coming off the bench to score. Others hoping to break into Feyenoord's lineup include striker Ayase Ueda, defensive midfielder Ramiz Zerrouki, and centre-back Gernot Trauner.
However, Igor Paixão is likely to continue playing on Feyenoord's left flank, having impressed this season. Paixão is the club's leading scorer, with a total of 12 goals.
