AZ Alkmaar ranks 19th in the Europa League group stage under Maarten Martens and, in the last game, the dutch side lost to Ferencváros with a final score of 3-4. They still qualified for the playoffs with 11 points.
Before that loss they were on an unbeaten streak of 4 matches (2W, 2D) which helped their confidence. They now face the clash with the turks after winning against Zwolle 2-0 in the league, and they are on a 3 match winning streak in all competitions.
Okan Buruk’s team started the group stage with a 1-2 defeat against Ajax but finished with an unbeaten streak of 7 matches in the continental tournament (where they had 3 wins and 4 draws). This means Galatasaray had 14th place in the group, reaching the top-8 only with one more point.
Last week, Galatasaray won over Boluspor 4-1 in away match in the Turkish Cup. They finished one of the most entertaining matches of the stage where regular time was full of action finishing with a goal average of 4.4 in the group stage.
