AZ Alkmaar's last six performances have yielded five wins and one draw. At the beginning of the season, Maarten Martens' team seemed capable of competing for the championship title or at least securing second place, which guarantees direct entry into the Champions League group stage. However, the situation is no longer as optimistic as fans and club management would like. Three consecutive losses have significantly impacted their league position, along with a draw against Go Ahead Eagles in the last round. Currently, Alkmaar occupy the sixth position in the national league, far from the Champions League zone. Losses to PSV and even Utrecht, which are currently performing well in the Eredivisie, are understandable, but a loss to Fortuna, who were near the relegation zone at the time, points to serious issues in Alkmaar's gameplay.

For Galatasaray, a successful Europa League campaign is a priority. In the Turkish Championship, they have no real competition, and victories over their main rivals Besiktas and Fenerbahçe in the battle for the title confirm this. After ten matches, the Lions lead by five points. Given the issues facing their competitors, Okan Buruk’s team’s situation in the Turkish Süper Lig is likely to only improve. This gives the team a chance to focus on the Europa League. The club management has been investing heavily to strengthen the squad, with rumors that they are ready to pay 50 million euros for Osimhen, who is currently playing for a Turkish club on loan and has already shown excellent results.
