Crystal Palace will make the short trip to Dublin on Thursday night to face Shelbourne in the UEFA Conference League.

Now, let’s take a closer look at some Conference League odds and betting angles for Thursday’s fixture:

Shelbourne v Crystal Palace – Thursday, 8pm

Punters can bet on Shelbourne v Crystal Palace with William Hill

• This is the first ever group/league phase that Shelbourne have participated in in terms of a major European competition and that’s showed after the first four games, having taken just one point thus far and remain the only side in the league yet to score a goal.
• It’s tough for Joey O’Brien’s side as the League of Ireland concluded in early November, meaning this is the only games that Shelbourne are playing, with their last game coming two weeks ago.
• It’s really hard to put a case together for this Shelbourne side on Thursday night, i think even a goal here would be a relief given no team has ever gone through a group/league phase of this competition without scoring a single goal.
  ——————————–
• Crystal Palace will eye this fixture up as the perfect chance to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat at Strasbourg in their last outing in this competition, the Eagles have picked up six points so far (W3, L2) but remain just two points off the top eight.
• Oliver Glasner’s side travel to Dublin off the back of two consecutive away wins against both Burnley and Fulham, they’ll be expecting to extend that winning streak to three for the second time already this season.
• The betting market is heavily in Crystal Palace’s favour here and it’s not surprising, i’m going to back the Eagles to have a comfortable night in Dublin and win this one to nil.

Prediction: Crystal Palace To Win To Nil, Shelbourne 0-3 Crystal Palace.
