Ludogorets CSKA Sofia betting prediction

The home team comes to this 2^nd round after a (3‑3) draw in their league debut, against Levski Krumovgrad. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in away matches; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Cup, they got an away win against Hebar 1918 by (0‑5). In the last 10 home league matches Ludogorets has a record of 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so they have won 25 points out of 30 possible. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (7 out of 16 matches). Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 12 of the last 16 for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 24 of the last 31 matches for the First League, they have reached half‑time in front in 18 of those 24 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 22 of them. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times, but have turned the score around in 2.

Ludogorets continues firmly in pursuit of the title this season and cannot afford to be complacent at this moment. The team is coming from a sequence of matches without defeat, but they will face a direct opponent in the league table. Needing to gather points, it's crucial for them to take to the field with a determined posture, without conceding spaces throughout the 90 minutes.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Padt, Son, Noah Sonko Sundberg, Anton Nedyalkov, Dinis Almeida, Claude Gonçalves, Pedro, Jakub Piotrowski, Kwadwo Duah, Bernard Tekpetey, Rick Lima.
