General match analysis
Levski Sofia lead the league with a perfect record of 8 wins, while Botev Vratsa have won just 2 of their 8 matches and have already conceded 17 goals. The visitors are highly effective away from home, averaging 2.33 goals from 10.33 shots and 5.67 shots on target per match, while the hosts manage just 0.67 goals and 2.67 shots on target. Levski’s advantage is also evident in the quality of chances created, with their away xG standing at 1.63 compared to Botev’s 0.97. Botev have lost 3 of their last 5 matches and conceded 12 goals during that period, whereas Levski have won 4 of their 5 games and are currently on a run of 3 consecutive away victories. The hosts may be able to keep the game more balanced thanks to their 33% home draw rate, but the gap in attacking quality and current consistency clearly favours the visitors.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The stronger signal points to BTTS - No, as both teams have scored in only 20% of Botev Vratsa’s matches this season and in just 20% of their last 5 games. The hosts have recently averaged only 0.8 goals per match, with 1.24 xG, while Levski Sofia conceded an average of 1.2 goals in this period and allowed opponents 0.99 xG. Levski are clearly more effective in attack, averaging 2.4 goals and 1.57 xG across their last five appearances, while Botev conceded as many as 2.4 goals per match over the same period, making an away goal highly likely. However, the BTTS - No pick is also supported by the strong chance that the hosts will fail to respond, especially since their BTTS rate is significantly below the league average of 56%, although Levski’s season-long rate of 100% is a significant argument in favour of the BTTS - Yes scenario.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Levski Sofia are in excellent offensive form: they have scored 12 goals in their last 5 matches, averaging 2.4 per game, while Botev Vratsa have conceded as many as 12 goals over the same period. The visitors have exceeded the 1.5-goal mark in 100% of their matches this season, and at least 3 goals were scored in 80% of their last five outings. Botev have recently averaged just 0.8 goals per game, but Levski have kept a clean sheet in none of their matches this season, giving the hosts a realistic chance of adding a goal. The combined projected xG of both teams, based on their current form, supports a scenario of around 3.0 goals. The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals, as even with Botev’s limited finishing efficiency, Levski’s attack should largely ensure at least two goals.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a Levski win at the final whistle. In their last five matches, both teams averaged only 0.4 goals before the break, while half-time draws occurred in 40% of Botev’s matches and 60% of Levski’s. Botev are currently clearly weaker over the full 90 minutes: in this sample, they averaged 0.8 goals scored, conceded 2.4, and lost three of five matches, whereas Levski won four of five, averaging 2.4 goals scored. The second half is crucial: Levski have recently averaged 2.0 goals in the second period, while Botev conceded as many as 2.0, failing to win any of the five second halves. The hosts do have very strong historical home statistics, with a lead at the break in 80% of matches and only 0.2 goals conceded after half-time; however, current form strongly supports a turnaround in favour of the away side after the break.
