Djurgarden vs Panathinaikos Prediction and Betting Tips | November 7th 2024

Djurgarden will host Panathinaikos at the Tele2 Arena in Stockholm for the third round of the league phase of the 2024-25 UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday night. Both teams will go into this game hoping to get their first Conference League win of the season, having both drawn one and lost one of their opening two matches.

The home side made an impressive comeback to draw 2-2 with LASK in the first round but suffered a disappointing 2-1 loss to Vitoria SC in the second round of the Europa Conference League. Since their last European outing, Djurgarden have played two matches in the Allsvenskan, winning one and losing the other, taking their underwhelming run of form to two wins in nine games.

Meanwhile, Panathinaikos played out a 1-1 away draw with Borac on the opening day before suffering an unsurprising 4-1 loss at home to English giants and Conference League favorites Chelsea.

The Shamrock found themselves four goals down before the hour mark against the Blues before former Manchester United winger Facundo Pellistri scored a late consolation goal and will be desperate for a winning performance this week.

Djurgarden vs Panathinaikos Prediction

Djurgarden will be hoping to get all three points to improve their chances of finishing in at least the knockout playoff spots. They have, however, won just two of their last five home games and could struggle here.

Panathinaikos saw their latest result end a run of back-to-back winless outings and they will be looking to build on that this week. They have, however, struggled to score goals away from home in recent games and may have to make do with a draw when they travel to Stockholm on Thursday.

Prediction: Djurgarden 1-1 Panathinaikos
