Match description

Levski is the clear favorite at home: they win 86% of home matches, score an average of 2.64 goals and concede only 0.64 per game, and across the season have 21 wins and 62 goals. Arda’s away numbers are markedly weaker — on the road they average 1.29 goals per game, 1.00 conceded, only 4.0 shots on target and as many as 50% of away matches without scoring, with a season tally of 11 wins and 32 goals. The quality-of-chances gap is confirmed by xG and shot metrics: Levski generates xG 2.21 at home with 17.64 shots and 7.36 on target, whereas Arda posts xG 1.26 away with 9.07 shots and 4.0 on target, giving the hosts nearly twice as many opportunities. Defensively the hosts also dominate — Levski has 50% clean sheets at home and xG against 0.91, while Arda records 43% clean sheets away and xG against 1.33, so the visitors are more often exposed to opponent chances. Although in the last 5 games both teams average 2 points per match and Arda scored 8 goals versus Levski’s 6, Levski’s season-long advantage in possession (65% vs 52%) and home statistics support backing the home win.
