AZ Alkmaar vs Standard Liege
This sports betting tip was written by Gambet on September 29th, 2009 at 16:45
AZ Alkmaar will be seeking to register their first victory of their Group H campaign when they meet Standard Liege.The Dutch champions were beaten 1-0 at Olympiacos in their opener but should find Standard more obliging opponents.Liege began their European adventure with a thrilling 3-2 defeat by Arsenal, going 2-0 up inside five minute through Eliaquim Mangala and Milan Jovanovic, only to crumble before the Gunners' second-half onslaught.AZ Alkmaar are one of this season's Champions League newcomers but they bring with them a magnificent home record in Europe - losing just one of the 33 matches they have they played.However, their recent form has been poor with FC Utrecht sending Ronald Koeman's side crashing to their third successive defeat of the Eredivisie season with a 1-0 triumph at the Galgenwaard Stadium on Saturday night.Liege are making their debut in the Champions League group stage after missing out last season when they beaten by Liverpool in their third-round qualifier.Before the Arsenal fixture they were unbeaten in 15 games at home in all competitions, but have been hit by the loss of captain Steven Defour to a broken foot for at least three months.For me Standard won't lose here.
