Cherno More can be a tough nut to crack at Ticha Stadium
PFC Cherno More’s 2024-2025 campaign has been an up-and-down one with the Varna club now having registered one win, two draws and two defeats in their previous five fixtures.

In our PFC Cherno More Varna vs PFC Levski Sofia prediction, the match is expected to be tightly contested given both clubs' form.
Levski have been flying since the winter break
Julio Velazquez has had a massive impact at Levski since taking over in January 2025. The Spaniard has quickly implemented his identity on the club, creating a high-possession, high-tempo, high-pressing side that can be deadly when on their day. Levski’s 4-3-3 is a perfect example of how to utilize their creative midfielder during moments of ball retention and quick transitions.
Levski’s most recent results have seen them beat Cherno More 2-0 at home, win 3-0 away at Arda Kardzhali, and then draw 2-2 at home against Ludogorets. This PFC Cherno More Varna vs PFC Levski Sofia prediction also factors in that Levski are one of the most defensively secure away sides in the league, having conceded just 12 goals in their 17 Parva liga road games (0.71 per game).
This is a fixture between two teams with different styles and it should be a chess match where Cherno More will look to frustrate Levski’s tempo and hit them on the counter. Cherno More’s centre-back is the main man who keeps the defense in shape and organises the backline when under pressure, while Levski’s captain marshals the defense with leadership, contributing to their outstanding away defensive record.
Back the draw for the best value
Cherno More are listed at 1.78 and the draw at 3.7 represents some value given the home side’s strong home form and Levski’s strong away form.
