FC Twente welcome Swiss side Thun to De Grolsch Veste on Thursday evening for a Europa Conference League league-stage fixture that marks a milestone for both clubs. Neither side has previously featured at this stage of the competition, and there is no head-to-head history between them.

Our Verdict
FC Twente's home win at 1.20 stands out as the clear selection. Four wins from five recent outings, including that impressive scalp over PSV Eindhoven, underline the Dutch side's quality, while Thun have managed just one victory in their last five. The Swiss outfit's away form looks particularly fragile, with three defeats in that run. Backing over 2.5 goals at 1.33 adds further value; Twente have averaged over two goals per match recently, and Thun's defensive record on the road offers little reassurance for the visitors.
