Sunderland vs AZ Alkmaar Preview<\/h2>

Sunderland's return to European competition after a 52-year absence makes this a landmark evening at the Stadium of Light. Regis Le Bris's side have shown decent domestic form, sitting fifth in the Premier League with three wins from their last five outings, though their attacking output has been modest. The confirmed absence of Habib Diarra through a long-term injury is a blow, and the Black Cats have averaged just a goal per game recently.<\/p>

AZ Alkmaar arrive on Wearside in formidable shape. The Dutch side have rattled off five consecutive victories in competitive action, scoring at a prolific rate of over three goals per match during that stretch. Their position of thirteenth in the Europa League standings belies their current momentum, and they will fancy their chances of exploiting Sunderland's relative inexperience on the continental stage. This is a side brimming with confidence and attacking intent.<\/p>
