CSKA Sofia v OFI Crete prediction

What to expect

We expect about 1.7 goals from CSKA Sofia and 0.9 from OFI Crete, so CSKA Sofia come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.6 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: CSKA Sofia to win. CSKA Sofia are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.7-0.9), and we make them about 61% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.

We put the chance of that landing at about 61 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.60, which works out at about 63 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

What the numbers say
CSKA Sofia have won two of their last five.

One thing to watch

OFI Crete only need one good spell or a set-piece to nick something, and short-priced favourites slip up plenty. We make it about 61% and the price sits right on top of that, so there's little cushion if it turns.
