General match analysis

CSKA Sofia sit 4th and remain unbeaten after 3 rounds, with a record of 2 wins and 1 draw, while Septemvri Sofia are 13th and have collected just 1 point from 2 defeats. The visitors also boast the more stable recent form: across their last five matches, they have recorded 2 wins and 3 draws, whereas the hosts have managed 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats. CSKA’s advantage is evident in chance creation, averaging 2.16 xG and 7 shots on target per away match, compared with Septemvri’s 1.71 xG and 5 shots on target at home. Septemvri have already conceded 6 goals this season and 8 in their last five matches, while CSKA have allowed just 3 goals in three rounds. Both teams drew their only previous match in the respective home and away role, so a draw remains a realistic scenario; however, the superior quality of CSKA’s chances favours an away win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

BTTS - Yes is primarily supported by the teams’ current chance-creation quality: Septemvri has averaged 1.42 xG over its last five matches, while CSKA has recorded as much as 2.04. The hosts have conceded an average of 1.6 goals per game during this period, whereas CSKA has scored an average of 1.0 goal, giving the visitors a realistic basis for finding the net. Meanwhile, CSKA’s defence has allowed opponents an average of 1.48 xG in its last five fixtures, despite conceding only 3 goals in reality, so maintaining clean sheets may prove difficult. BTTS landed in 80% of Septemvri’s last five matches and in 40% of CSKA’s games, while the league average stands at 62%; therefore, the signal for both teams to score is moderately positive. The main risk is CSKA’s strong recent defensive record, conceding just 0.6 goals per game, but the advantage in chance-creation metrics points slightly towards a scenario in which both teams score.

Over/Under - goals analysis

Septemvri’s latest results point to matches averaging 2.6 goals: the team scored 1.0 goal but conceded as many as 1.6. CSKA have also averaged 1.0 goal scored across their last five matches, while their significantly stronger defence conceded just 0.6 goals per game. The visitors’ attacking potential remains clear, with an average xG of 2.04 compared to 1.42 for the hosts, but the overall profile does not justify a four-goal projection. Septemvri have seen Over 2.5 goals in 60% of their last five matches, compared to just 40% for CSKA, while the league average stands at 2.38 goals. Therefore, the clearest edge lies with Under 3.5: a projected total of 2.50 goals leaves a safe margin below the four-goal line.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest signal is a cautious opening: CSKA Sofia were level at half-time in 100% of their matches so far this season and in their last five games as well, averaging just 0.4 goals before the break. Septemvri were trailing after 45 minutes in 60% of their last five appearances, but their average first-half output was also only 0.4 goals, limiting the likelihood of either side establishing a clear lead. The visitors are, however, more consistent over the full 90 minutes: they remain unbeaten in their last five league matches, drawing 60% of them and conceding an average of just 0.6 goals. Septemvri conceded 1.6 goals per game over the same period and won only 20% of their matches, but home advantage and an xG of 2.38 compared with the visitors’ 2.16 suggest they should avoid defeat. A draw at half-time and at full-time best combines CSKA’s strongly draw-oriented profile with both teams’ low scoring efficiency in recent matches.
