Legia vs AZ: Top Free Betting Tips
Legia have a real chance of qualifying for the 1/16 finals of the Europa Conference League if they win a point from this match. On the other end, AZ Alkmaar's only chance of qualifying is if they win this game with 3-0 or more. Here are our predictions.

Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals
There is no way that we can expect an under in a match like this one. The only way it could happen is if Legia decide to play defensive football and try to win a point here. However, with a 3-2 win over Aston Villa in one of the earlier rounds at home, we doubt that they have it in them to be boring and reserved. We expect a big game in Warsaw and AZ will also be desperate to win it.
Double Chance Prediction: Legia or Draw
On paper, AZ Alkmaar should have the advantage in strength but we have not seen this advantage translate on the pitch. AZ lost both of their away games in the ECL to date, once to Villa and the memorable 4-3 to Zrinjski. They can score a lot of goals but their defense is absolutely out of shape. We think that Legia will not give them the three points and the odds are good for a double chance bet. Legia's stadium is a fortress and it is incredibly difficult to play there.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-2 Draw
We do not think that Legia will lose this match but winning it will not be easy. AZ Alkmaar will come out with extreme motivation and this is why we would bet on a scoreline like 2-2. Knowing how solid Legia are at home, we do not see how a 3-0 win for the visitors could happen here. When we compare the Legia vs AZ line ups, we think that the visitors are the better team but they have not performed well enough to qualify in this group.
How Far Will AZ Alkmaar Fans Travel To Legia?
The trip to Warsaw is not a difficult one and you can even do it by car if you are that motivated. The distance between Alkmaar and Warsaw is 1230 kilometers. However, getting there by plane will be easier and potentially even cheaper. The best prices for plane tickets are around €350 for both directions.
