General match analysis
Etar possess a clear home advantage: 58% possession, 14.9 shots per match and 1.73 goals scored with 1.18 GA on average. CSKA Sofia II have a better overall season record and a more effective attack (40 goals) and superior recent form (PPG 2.0 vs Etar 1.4). xG metrics also favor the hosts (1.89 vs 1.46), indicating Etar will create more clear chances. However visitors are less prone to goalless matches and threaten on the counter, reducing likelihood of a heavy defeat. For these reasons I forecast a narrow home win with a significant probability of a draw.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Moderately high BTTS probability: Etar’s seasonCSPercentage 58% reduces mutual scoring chances, but CSKA Sofia II’s season BTTS 64% and 9 goals in L5 increase the odds. Etar generates ~1.94 xG and opponents concede ~1.41 xG, so home attack is a real threat; however Etar conceded 10 in L5, weakening their defensive advantage. SOT (8.5 vs 6.36) and higher season scoring for Etar (2.0) indicate both can score. Weighing high home CS vs away BTTS and recent defensive lapses, recommendation: BTTS = Yes.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
xG and goal averages model projects ~2.97 total (Etar 1.68, CSKA II 1.29). Etar generates high home xG (1.94) and good efficiency; CSKA II has high Over1.5 shares (91%) and BTTS 64%, raising chances of goals from both sides. Despite Etar’s high CS% (58%), xG gap and shot volumes argue for an away goal and at least two total. Strongest data signal: Over 1.5 as the most certain option; Over2.5 remains plausible; Over3.5 less likely.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Etar shows a decisive statistical advantage: higher PPG, better xG, low average goals conceded and 50% HT leads, strongly indicating a Half-Time lead. Clean sheets and low BTTS for Etar suggest they often keep a clean sheet or limit concessions, while CSKA II have weaker defense and lower PPG, increasing away loss probability. Historical HT data show Etar frequently lead at the break and dominate the second half (high ppg_2hg_home), favoring conversion of the HT lead into a win. Given solid home defense and lower opponent efficiency, I predict HT/FT 1/1 as most likely. A secondary moderate-probability option is X/1 if Etar fails to build an early lead.
