View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The stronger signal points to BTTS - No, as Slavia Sofia have not recorded a single match with both teams scoring in their season data, while keeping a clean sheet in 50% of their fixtures. The visitors average 1.5 goals, but their attacking creation is limited to an xG of 0.74 and 2.5 shots on target per match, reducing their chances of breaching Ludogorets' defence. In their last five matches, Ludogorets conceded an average of just 1.0 goal, with an xG allowed of 1.02, while Slavia conceded only 0.4 goals per match during the same period. Although the hosts are in good scoring form, averaging 2.2 goals across their last five appearances, a one-sided victory for them is more likely than both teams finding the net.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Ludogorets are in good attacking form, averaging 2.2 goals scored over their last 5 matches with an xG of 1.71, while Slavia Sofia conceded just 0.4 goals per game during the same period. The visitors are averaging only 0.98 xG across their last five appearances and have not recorded a single game with over 3.5 goals in matches played this season. Ludogorets also have a 100% record of games finishing below 3.5 goals in the seasonal data, although their recent form increases the chances of at least two goals. Both teams kept a clean sheet in 50% of their matches, reducing the likelihood of an open, high-scoring game. The projected total of 2.30 goals points clearly towards Under 3.5 goals, while still allowing room for a 2:1 or 3:0 result.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Ludogorets are in clearly better form, having won 4 of their last 5 matches, scoring an average of 2.2 goals per game and avoiding defeat. The hosts led at the break in 60% of those matches, scoring an average of 1.0 goal before half-time, while Slavia Sofia scored just 0.4 goals per game in the first half. Ludogorets’ superiority is also evident in their chance creation: their average xG is 1.10, while their opponents concede an average of 1.41 xG. Slavia were level at half-time in 80% of their last five appearances, so the X/1 option remains a strong alternative; however, Ludogorets’ 4 wins and 60% rate of leading at the break slightly strengthen the scenario of the hosts leading from half-time to full-time.
