Selhurst Park will be rocking again on Thursday night in hope of picking up their first-ever European home win, they welcome Dutch side AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Conference League.
Now, let’s take a closer look at some Conference League odds and betting angles for Thursday’s fixture:
Crystal Palace v AZ Alkmaar – Thursday, 8pm
Punters can bet on Crystal Palace v AZ Alkmaar with William Hill
- Having gone four games without a win including a shock defeat here to AEK Larnaca in this competition against all the odds, Crystal Palace might have gotten themselves right back on track after securing back-to-back wins against both Liverpool (EFL Cup) and Brentford (PL).
- Oliver Glasner’s side will be hoping to pick up their first ever European home win on Thursday night, they’ve lost just one of their last fifteen outings at Selhurt Park going back to February, although that defeat was in the Conference League.
- The Eagles will be looking to keep successive home clean sheets for the first time since May 2024 and Glasner has reminded his side to stay humble as they hunt success in this UEFA Conference League.
——————————– - AZ Alkmaar also suffered a defeat at the hands of AEK Larnaca and a heavy one at that, losing 4-0 away from home in their curtain raiser but the Dutch side have since bounced back with victories in each of their last five games in all competitions.
- De Kaasboeren are also hopeful of picking up the Eredivisie title after a brilliant start to the campaign, they sit just four points off both PSV and Feyenoord at the top and leapfrogged Ajax following a 2-0 victory in Amsterdam.
- I think we could see both teams get themselves on the scoresheet here at Selhurst Park and the game will be closer than the betting market suggests, i’m going to back Crystal Palace to edge it but in a close encounter.
Prediction: Both Teams To Score & Crystal Palace To Win, Crystal Palace 2-1 AZ Alkmaar.
