Overview of the UEFA Conference League tournament
The UEFA Conference League operates as the third-tier European club competition under UEFA, sitting below the Champions League and Europa League. It launched in 2021 to offer clubs from smaller associations a clearer path through the knockout stages. The current format involves a 36-team league phase before shifting to single-leg ties.
Five different sides have lifted the trophy since inception, with Crystal Palace standing as the reigning champions after their 2026 final victory. Roma claimed the inaugural title in 2021–22, while West Ham United went unbeaten to win in 2023. Chelsea completed a unique set of four major European honours in 2025.
English clubs hold three titles overall, making them the most successful nation in this relatively young history. Winners earn automatic entry into the following season's UEFA Europa League league phase. That progression prize keeps stakes high throughout every round of play. Bettors looking to bet on UEFA Conference League often track these qualification implications alongside standard match markets.
Format and teams in the UEFA Conference League
The UEFA Conference League operates under a group-knockout structure overseen by UEFA for the 2025–26 season. It serves as the third-tier European club competition, sitting below the Champions League and Europa League. From 2024–25 onward, the traditional group stage gave way to a single 36-team league phase. This shift changes how form builds across the early rounds.
Five clubs have lifted the trophy since its inception in 2021. Roma started it off in 2021–22, followed by West Ham United's unbeaten run in 2023. Olympiacos secured Greece's first major European title in 2024, while Chelsea completed their set of four major trophies in 2025. Crystal Palace are the reigning champions after defeating Rayo Vallecano in the 2026 final. English sides hold three of those titles overall.
Tracking these campaigns helps when reviewing outright markets or accumulator stakes on this tournament. The path to qualification includes a spot in next year's Europa League league phase for the winner. For followers of the UEFA Conference League in Saudi Arabia, understanding which teams dominate specific phases matters more than just picking a favorite blindly.

Past winners and championship records
The UEFA Conference League launched in 2021 as the third tier of European club football under UEFA. It started with Roma taking the inaugural title in 2021–22, followed by West Ham United winning unbeaten in 2022–23. Olympiacos claimed the first major European trophy for a Greek club in 2023–24. Chelsea completed their set of all four major European trophies by lifting the cup in 2024–25. Crystal Palace are the reigning champions after defeating Rayo Vallecano in the 2026 final.
Five different clubs have won the competition so far, meaning no single side dominates the outright market yet. English teams hold three titles between them, while Italy and Greece have secured one each. The format shifted significantly ahead of the 2024–25 season when a 36-team league phase replaced the old group stage. Winners earn qualification for the following year's UEFA Europa League league phase. This structure keeps pre-match odds fluid as new entrants join from various national leagues every term.
Several standout records define how teams perform across these campaigns. West Ham United and Chelsea share the record for most wins in a single campaign with 12 victories apiece. Chelsea also posted a highest-scoring campaign tally of 42 goals during their triumph run.
An 8–0 victory against FC Noah remains the largest single-match margin recorded to date. Arthur Cabral leads all-time scoring charts with 21 goals when qualifiers count, though Mikael Ishak tops non-qualifier lists with 13 strikes. These stats offer context for anyone analyzing form before placing a stake on UEFA Conference League betting in Saudi Arabia.

Available betting options on UEFA Conference League at 1xBet
The UEFA Conference League runs a 36-team league phase before moving into knockout rounds, creating a structure where form shifts quickly. Because the path to the final involves multiple stages, the outright market stays active throughout the campaign rather than settling early. That dynamic keeps prices fluid as teams advance or stumble in their matches.
Pre-match slips usually start with match result, double chance and totals on goal lines. Handicap options adjust the balance when one side is heavily favoured, while correct score offers higher risk for precise predictions. These standard football options sit alongside accumulators that combine selections across different ties in the tournament.
Live betting tracks every goal and card as play unfolds during the 2025–26 season. The cash-out feature lets you settle a position before the final whistle if your view changes mid-game. All of this falls under UEFA Conference League betting markets available on the platform for Saudi customers.
Match markets
Pre-match slips for the UEFA Conference League start with the standard match result, letting you back a home win, draw, or away outcome. Because the league phase involves 36 teams, the fixture list offers plenty of options to build an accumulator across multiple rounds. The double chance market narrows risk by covering two of those three results in a single stake. Handicaps adjust the level playing field when one side is clearly stronger on paper. Correct score bets demand precision but pay out accordingly if your prediction hits exactly right.
Totals markets ask whether the combined goal count will finish above or below a set line.
Both teams to score settles based on whether each side finds the net during regulation time.
First goalscorer pricing shifts heavily once confirmed lineups are released closer to kick-off.
Half-time/full-time combines two distinct outcomes into one wager for higher potential returns.
Cash-out lets you settle a position early if momentum swings against your selection mid-game.
Live betting mirrors these same structures as play unfolds, reacting instantly to red cards or sudden goal surges. Form guides show that Chelsea scored 42 goals in their title-winning campaign, while West Ham United went unbeaten across 12 wins in 2022–23. Those historical patterns often inform how bookmakers price upcoming encounters between familiar rivals.
Outright and specials
The outright market names the club to lift the UEFA Conference League trophy, a prize currently held by Crystal Palace after their 2026 final victory. Five sides share the record with 1 title each, including Roma as the inaugural winner in 2022 and West Ham United's unbeaten campaign in 2023. Chelsea added their name to that list in 2025, becoming the first club to hold all four major European trophies.
Specials markets dig deeper into specific milestones rather than just the final result. Bettors can stake on top scorers like Arthur Cabral with his 21 goals or Mikael Ishak's 13 strikes outside qualifiers. Other props track campaign highs such as Chelsea's 42-goal tally or their 8–0 margin against FC Noah in a single match. These lines offer a focused angle when backing individual performances over the season-long race for silverware.
Accumulators
An accumulator lets you combine multiple selections from the UEFA Conference League into a single wager. All picks must land for the ticket to pay out, which raises the potential return significantly compared to singles. The 36-team league phase offers plenty of matches to build a multi-leg slip across different rounds.
Risk climbs with every added selection, but so does the upside if your research holds. English clubs have claimed three titles since Roma won in 2021–22, providing historical context for picking winners. Cash-out is available on these bets if the position moves in your favour before settlement.
Live and cash-out
Live betting on the UEFA Conference League lets you place wagers while the match is underway, reacting to momentum shifts and tactical changes in real time. The odds adjust instantly as play develops across the 36-team league phase or knockout rounds. Cash-out offers a way to settle a bet before the final whistle, locking in a return or cutting losses based on the current game state. It's a tool for managing risk when form turns unexpectedly. Both features are available throughout the competition at 1xBet, giving bettors control over their stakes from kickoff to full time.
