UEFA Europa Conference League picks for AZ Alkmaar vs. West Ham

Before you tune in to Thursday's match, you need to see the 2023 UEFA Europa Conference League picks from SportsLine soccer expert Jon Eimer. Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge of leagues and players across the globe. Since joining SportsLine, he has covered the English Premier League, Serie A, the FA Cup and much more. He is a stunning 82-63-4 on all soccer picks for SportsLine this season, returning more than 25 units for his followers.

For West Ham vs. AZ Alkmaar, Eimer is playing both teams to score for a -110 payout. Both teams currently find themselves outside the parameters of playing European football next season based on their domestic finish, as West Ham sits 15th in the English Premier League and AZ Alkmaar sits fourth in the Dutch Eredivisie.

While AZ could still catch Ajax to earn their way back into the UECL with a third-place finish in the league, this is their best route to move up into the UEL. Meanwhile, West Ham is now a comfortable seven points above the relegation zone with three matches to go in the EPL season, so they can now focus on their only chance to play continental football next season.

Both teams have scored in six of the last nine West Ham matches across all competitions, while both teams have also scored in six of AZ's last nine UECL fixtures. Eimer also likes anytime goal scorer plays on Michail Antonino (+190) and Vangelis Pavlidis (+380) to sweeten up what could be a back-and-forth match. Stream the game here.
