Botev Plovdiv appears to be the favorite in this match, despite both teams occupying low positions in the table. The hosts have won 2 of their last 5 matches and are in better form (1.4 points per game) compared to Beroe (0.4 points per game), who have failed to win any of their last five matches. A key factor is also the goal difference – Botev have -7 at home, while Beroe away show an even worse record of -11, conceding an average of 2.11 goals per match. xG statistics also favor the hosts (1.5 vs 1.19), indicating their greater offensive efficiency. Beroe have only an 11% win rate away from home and are in terrible form, making their victory highly unlikely. Beroe's high away draw percentage (33%) and the poor form of both teams make a draw a realistic scenario as well.
