Match description

Lokomotiv Plovdiv has a clear advantage in form: in the last 5 matches they recorded 3 wins and 2 draws (an average of 2.2 points per match), scoring 8 goals and conceding only 2, while Cherno More over the same period has 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses (an average of 0.8 points per match) with 3 scored and 9 conceded. Over the season both teams have 11 wins, but the visitors have a slightly better goal tally (33 vs 30) and a higher efficiency in converting chances (conversion rate 12% versus 9% for the hosts), and Cherno More’s away goals average is 1.2 compared to Lokomotiv’s 0.93 at home. The key advantage for the home side, however, stems from defense and current form: Lokomotiv at home concedes on average 1.0 goal per match and has 53% of matches with clean sheets, while the visitors have conceded 9 goals in their last five games. The quality of created chances is similar (xG 1.34 for Lokomotiv at home vs 1.33 for Cherno More away, average shots on target 3.67 vs 3.93), which indicates the edge was provided by the hosts’ recent form. On this basis I predict a Lokomotiv Plovdiv win with estimated probabilities of 60% for the home team, 25% for a draw and 15% for the visitors.
