If you’re playing this one, here’s the no-bull take.
FC Twente at 2.24 to win feels a tad skinny given their inconsistencies in the Eredivisie this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re overperforming — analytics guys would avoid.
AZ Alkmaar’s 3.14 line smells value, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The wise guys’ll likely poke at the Draw 3.64 — these derbies often play out tight, and pressure can kill attacking flow.
