How it turned out
We projected about 2.5 goals and the game finished with 3. Both teams scored. We made Levski Sofia to win 61%, and it landed.
What we said beforehand
Levski Sofia look the stronger side on paper. The goal expectations are 0.8 for Slavia and 1.7 for Levski, giving a total of about 2.5 goals. That suggests a game with a few chances but not a goal-fest. Levski are the clear favourite, so we expect them to control the match and push for a win rather than settle for a low-scoring draw.
Looking at the recent run, Levski have been mixed in their last five league games, winning two, drawing one and losing two, whether at home or away. Those results show they can pick up points on the road but are not unbeatable. There is no specific head-to-head data given, so we rely on the current numbers that still put Levski ahead.
Our pick is Levski Sofia to win. The price on offer is 1.32, which is shorter than what we think the game is worth. We see Levski winning about 63% of the time, and the price does not fully reflect that edge. Backing them outright is the simplest way to back the side we feel has the advantage.
For the pick to go wrong, Levski would need to slip up early and let Slavia settle defensively, or the match would have to turn very tight with few chances. If Levski fail to score first, the game could stay level and the upset risk rises. We are fairly confident in our view, but a single goal against could change everything.
