Rijeka

Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be AZ Alkmaar not to win. It is true that the Dutch club has more quality players, however, the two teams live different moments. AZ Alkmaar has won just one of last ten games played, with the Croatian side having won four of their last five games. Thus, it is expected that Rijeka will be minimally competent and end up conquering at least a draw.
