AZ still has a slim chance of progression in Europe after beating Zrinjski Mostar 1-0. If Legia Warsaw loses to Aston Villa later this evening, then the Alkmaarders will have something to play for when they travel to Poland on the 14th of December. AZ took the lead against Zrinjski Mostar after an hour played when Vangelis Pavlidis converted a penalty. The Greek was fouled in the penalty area by Mario Cuze.
Feyenoord is PSV's biggest challenger in the Eredivisie for the time being. The reigning champions won the home match against AZ (1-0), and with that, they climbed to second in the table with a seven-point gap to the dominant league leaders in Eindhoven.
