Den Bosch sit 16th in the 20-team table with eight points from nine matches and a goal difference of minus five.

Recent travels brought a 3-1 defeat at Jong PSV U21 on 7 September, a 2-0 loss at FC Volendam on 13 September, and a 1-0 defeat at De Graafschap on 27 September. While they earned a 1-1 home draw against Dordrecht on 3 October and beat Helmond Sport 2-1 on 18 September, their away return remains blank.

Jong AZ occupy 10th place with 13 points from nine games, having scored 22 goals and conceded 17. Their home record stands at two wins and two defeats from four matches, with seven goals scored and five conceded. That home run includes a 4-1 victory over FC Volendam on 18 September and a 2-1 win over Jong Utrecht on 31 August. In attack, Bendegúz Kovács leads the side with four goals in all competitions, matching Den Bosch's leading scorer Sebastian Karlsson Grach, who also has four goals this season.

Two draws and a Jong AZ win in their last three meetings
The sides shared a 2-2 draw when they met on 23 February 2026, following a 3-2 away victory for Jong AZ on 26 September 2025. That run leaves Den Bosch without a victory over Jong AZ in their last three encounters, extending back to a 0-0 draw on 28 April 2025.
Our model expects a Jong AZ win
MatchdayAI's model expects a Jong AZ win, assigning medium confidence to the home side. Den Bosch's run of four consecutive away defeats and their minus five goal difference support that assessment. Even so, Den Bosch have generated 2.40 expected goals per game over their last four matches with chance data, showing they can create openings despite conceding 1.74 at the other end.
