Alkmaar, Netherlands (My Sportsbook) - AZ Alkmaar extended its unbeaten streak in Eredivisie play to 27 games on Saturday as the club overcame a one- goal deficit at halftime to beat Den Haag, 4-1. Christian Kum scored five minutes before halftime to give the visitors an unlikely lead, but the league leaders rallied to score four times in the second half as Moussa Dembele, Maarten Martens, Mounir El Hamdaoui and Nick Van der Velden each found the back of the net. The result puts AZ 11 points clear of second-placed Twente with five games remaining, while Den Haag remains two points above the bottom three. PSV Eindhoven moved closer to the top four with a 2-0 win over Sparta as Balazs Dzsudzsak and Ola Toivonen scored first-half goals, Heerenveen was held to a 1-1 draw by Heracles as Mark Jan Fledderus scored with nine minutes to play and Groningen got a goal from Evgeniy Levchenko four minutes into stoppage time to earn a 1-0 win over Utrecht.
