Zeefuik returns to the AZ selection for the away match against FC Drita in the Conference League. The attacker was missing from the home game against Go Ahead Eagles (2-2) on Sunday due to an ankle injury. Zeefuik’s return comes at the expense of Sem van Duijn, who is outside the group of 21 players. Midfielder Jordy Clasie and attacker Mexx Meerdink have been missing for a long time with injuries.
AZ has 6 points after four of the six rounds. The Alkmaarders will close the main tournament next Thursday with a home match against Jagiellonia Bialystok. In order to prepare as best as possible for that match, AZ has received permission from the KNVB to move the home match with Excelsior from next Sunday to next year.
