Ferencvarosi TC vs AZ Alkmaar

This is Ferencvárosi’s first meeting with Dutch opponents since July 2015, and a 4-1 win over Go Ahead Eagles in UEFA Europa League qualifying. That win is their only victory in seven attempts against Dutch sides (D2 L4).

This is AZ’s first ever meeting with Hungarian opposition, the 34th different nation they’ve faced a side from in all European competition.

Ferencvárosi have won five of their last eight home UEFA Europa League matches (D1 L2), having won none of their first five on home soil in the competition prior (D2 L3).

AZ have lost six of their last eight away matches in the UEFA Europa League (W1 D1), scoring just four goals since a 5-0 win at Astana in November 2019.

The average age of AZ’s starting XIs in this season’s UEFA Europa League is 23 years and 351 days old – the youngest of any side in the competition this term.
