Even I am feeling completely different from you but still I am counting this game as one of the interesting in this round because AZ Alkmaar is having bad time they lost their last game in Conference League and their performance in this league is also not good in last few matches as they lost 8 points and now having chance to drop on fourth spot with Twente is also going to visit Sparta Rotterdam which is also one of the interesting matches in this round with after this round we will have 25 days winter break, so mostly teams will try to keep things on high note before this break so most chances PSV will win and go on break with undefeated in this season's first half.
There is no doubt things will be not easy for the both teams but currently PSV is surely having good depth into their team and their players are doing impressive job which giving them win after win and most chances they could be claim title before end of this season due to big difference of points due to the worst time of Ajax which was struggling and now trying to fight back for the top flight.
For Alkmaar, they're lagging behind and it's really taking toll on them and their points on the league table too. They've just got to find a balance and get back to their pace. Their league isn't even as competitive as other European leagues as there are just a few teams that are tough in their play. They can still meet up with points and stay at a good spot on the table too. Congrats to Ajax and PSV, they're good and are growing better gradually regardless of the little loopholes that they're having too.
Alkmaar has shown a little below-average performance in the last five matches in my opinion. Of course, almost all the people expected better performance from them. And I don't think they will actually be able to go anywhere near the first position. Just for context, and they are in the 4th position and the point difference between them and the team in the first position of the table is 12. So yes things are looking tough for them and at the same time PSV looks like running away with things.
