With the Europa Conference League group stage drawing to a close on Thursday, teams from across the continent will be looking to punch their respective knockout stage tickets.
As Crystal Palace look to squick themselves a top-eight finish, we have 18 European showdowns pencilled in.
For those of you looking to stick on a Thursday flutter, we have taken a glance at some of the most attractive Europa Conference League betting tips.
20:00 AZ Alkmaar vs Jagiellonia
Putting in what was a dominant European performance last week as they stormed their way to an empathic 3-0 victory against Drita, AZ Alkmaar will be dreaming of a repeat display here. Getting their group stage finale underway on Thursday night sat just one-point adrift of skyrocketing their way into the top-eight, Maarten Martens’ men will feel that they have been handed a golden opportunity in midweek. Despite continuing to show some real inconsistencies on the road, Alkmaar have gained a reputation for their rugged success at the AFAS Stadion. Signing off November with a routine 2-0 win against Irish outfit Shelbourne, Martens’ side have suffered just a single defeat in front of their own supporters across all competitions since the start of April.
Although Jagiellonia might find themselves sat in the driving seat to punch a famous knockout stage ticket this season, the Polish outfit are in the midst of what has become a worrying recent rut. Failing to claim some much-needed momentum over the weekend as they eventually had to settle for a 1-1 stalemate away at Motor Lubin, Adrian Siemieniec’s side have failed to win any of their previous five appearances across all competitions, Thursday’s guests are enduring their worst run of the 2025/26 campaign. Last seen in Europa Conference League action falling to a 2-1 defeat at home against Rayo Vallecano, Jagiellonia are rightfully installed as a real underdog contender when they travel to the Netherlands on Thursday night.
AZ Alkmaar vs Jagiellonia Betting Tip: Troy Parrott to score anytime @ 21/20 with Pribet
20:00 Sparta Prague vs Aberdeen
While Sparta Prague might have a real battle on their hands in the race to reclaim their domestic crown this season, the Czech giants should take plenty of positives away from their exploits on the continent. Already storming their way to a Europa Conference League knockout stage ticket, Brian Priske’s side have registered 10 points from their five group stage appearances. Last seen in European action landing a 2-1 win away at Romanian outfit Universitatea Craiova, Sparta should also be excited by their defensive steel. Landing a 1-0 win against Legia Warsaw last month, Sparta have shipped just three Europa Conference League goals this year. In fact, only three clubs in this season’s tournament have conceded fewer goals than Thursday’s hosts.
Getting their Europa Conference League adventure underway back in August always knowing that they had a real battle on their hands in the race to book a famous knockout stage ticket, Aberdeen have largely struggled on the continent. Last seen in group stage action falling to a 1-0 loss at home against French outfit Strasbourg, Jimmy Thelin’s men have put just two points on the board from any of their five appearances this year. Falling to a 6-0 drumming against AEK Athens on October 23rd, Aberdeen have also shown some issues in the final third. Despite snatching a 0-0 stalemate away at AEK Larnaca last month, Thelin’s side have notched just a single strike in any of their last four Europa Conference League outings.
