OFK Pirin displays significantly better form and statistics compared to Spartak Pleven. The hosts remain unbeaten in their last five matches (2 wins, 3 draws) and have earned 1.8 points per game, while the visitors have won only once and are conceding an average of 2.8 goals per match during this period. Spartak Pleven has not won a single away match this season (0% win rate, -14 goal difference), whereas OFK Pirin has a 33% win rate at home with a balanced goal difference.
