Twente Women secured a comprehensive 5-0 victory over AZ in the Eredivisie Regular Season on September 27, 2026. The result leaves the visitors top of the table with a perfect record after six matches. AZ, sitting third, now face questions about their campaign after another heavy defeat at home.
Twente's form has been relentless. They beat Feyenoord Women 4-0 just two weeks ago, and before that dismantled Heerenveen 5-1. Their only blemish came in July against PSV Women, a 3-0 loss that now looks like an anomaly.
AZ's recent trajectory tells a different story. They lost 5-1 to Ajax Women on September 19, following wins against PSV, Utrecht, Feyenoord, and ADO Den Haag. The pattern of alternating between strong performances and costly defeats has defined their season so far.
Twente's position at the summit is now eight points clear. Six victories from six matches, no draws, no losses — the kind of start that demands attention. The gap between first and third has widened considerably after this result.
For AZ, the scoreline adds to their two defeats in six matches. They still sit in third place with twelve points, but the margin for error has shrunk. The next round of fixtures will test whether they can respond.
