Vaduz vs AZ Prediction and Betting Tips | October 27, 2022 

Vaduz will welcome AZ Alkmaar to the Rheinpark Stadium on matchday five of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday (October 27).

The hosts are coming off a goalless draw at Wil in the Swiss Challenge League on Sunday. AZ, meanwhile, fell to a surprise 2-1 defeat at Excelsior in the Dutch Eredivisie.

Siebe Horemans and Marouan Azarkan scored first-half goals to give the hosts a 2-0 lead at the break. Yukinari Sugawara halved the deficit three minutes into the second half, but AZ could not find the equaliser as they slumped to a third straight defeat across competitions.

Vaduz are bottom of Group E in the Conference League, having garnered just two points from four games. AZ, meanwhile, lead the way at the summit with nine points from four games. A win will be enough for the Eredivisie club to see them through to the knockouts.

Vaduz vs AZ Prediction

Vaduz have an outside chance of securing third spot in the group. However, anything other than an outright victory in their final home game could extinguish those hopes.

The hosts have given a good account of themselves in the continent, having negotiated three qualifying rounds to reach the group stage. Vaduz were outsiders in all three qualifying ties, highlighting their propensity to cause an upset.

AZ, meanwhile, have not had the best of weeks, with their 15-game unbeaten run snapped by a run of three straight losses across competitions. However, the Dutch club are still the overwhelming favorites to claim a comfortable win.

Prediction: Vaduz 1-4 AZ Alkmaar
