- FC Twente are the form side, with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in their last 5.
- DAC Dunajska are in good form, unbeaten in 5, with 3 wins and 2 draws.
Tweakers aim to slow the game down
FC Twente can be the likelier winners in the odds at 31/50, and DAC Dunajska could be worth a flutter at 4/1, but we've settled on a Twente edge and a few goals for this UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 clash at De Grolsch Veste. The draw is at 59/20 and would be a bonus on the straight bet.
John van den Brom has been in charge of FC Twente since 15 September 2025 and has built a team with a real bias to clog the middle and dominate possession in order to get a man in space on the edge of the box. The only problem with that in this spot is that DAC will look to press high and hit quickly on the counter-attack, which should lead to an interesting tactical battle on Thursday.
Robert Klauss took over Dunajska on 1 July 2026 and has got them playing a fast, direct 4-4-2 system that becomes a narrow 4-2-2-2 with the ball. They're in good nick at the moment and could make life difficult for the Eredivisie side.
Familiar foe can put up a fight
The statistics lean towards a Twente win and a close and competitive contest. FC Twente are the in-form side, with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in their last 5 games. DAC are in form too, with 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5, but they lack the Dutch outfit's pedigree.
In their domestic competitions, Twente have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1, but they've conceded only 1.00 goals per game on average. DAC are a little less convincing away, with 1 win, 2 draws and 3 defeats on their travels, but they've conceded 7 goals in their 6 away games so far.
So Twente look the more likely winners, but DAC are in better form and have the direct punch to go for the throat on Thursday. We think a tight match will probably suit them best, so we're going with Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score: No at 13/20 and 107/100.
Goals could come from all angles
The goals may come from either end in this one as Twente have Lucas Vennegoor of Hesselink to call upon with 2 goals in his last 5 matches, while DAC have Ammar Ramadan as their spark in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 with 2 goals in 2 games. Giorgi Gagua has 3 goals in their last 5 in all competitions as DAC have scored 8 times in that period.
