- Levski have won 14 of their last 16 home games in the Parva Liga - Championship Group, scoring 2.44 goals per match and conceding just 0.56 goals.
- Ludogorets Razgrad are winless in their last 5 (D1, L4), including a 1-0 loss to CSKA Sofia in their most recent match.
Home advantage to give Levski the edge
Levski Sofia have dominated the Parva Liga - Championship Group this season and currently sit top of the standings with 76 points from 32 matches, 16 points ahead of Ludogorets in third. Levski have had to work hard for their success and have had to overcome the better side on a few occasions this season. The PFC Levski Sofia vs PFC Ludogorets Razgrad prediction has become a topic of interest as Ludogorets have won the last 2 head-to-head encounters in the league, winning 1-0 here just 2 months ago.
However, Levski are unbeaten in their last 5 (W3, D2) and have taken maximum points in their last 2, so they are unlikely to be the easy prey that Ludogorets expect on Saturday. Levski have been in the driving seat this campaign and boss Julio Velázquez has instilled a clear sense of structure and tactical discipline in his team. Our PFC Levski Sofia vs PFC Ludogorets Razgrad preview highlights that Velázquez has implemented a methodical 4-2-3-1 that is highly possession based and has often seen the full backs play as high flying wingers, while the number 10 link up play is very much a key component of their style.
Ludogorets, by contrast, have been very direct under Per-Mathias Hoegmo’s tenure and have enjoyed the benefits of his tactical flexibility and attacking flair. However, despite some impressive results, Hoegmo’s style has not paid off in the Championship Group, with Razgrad winless in their last 5 (D1, L4), their most recent defeat coming just last weekend when CSKA Sofia took a 1-0 victory at home. This PFC Levski Sofia vs PFC Ludogorets Razgrad prediction must note that Ludogorets are not in great form at all, especially away from home, where they are winless in their last 3, picking up just 1 draw.
A clash of philosophies
Levski have won 14 of their 16 home matches in the Championship Group and have a far superior record than Ludogorets. Levski score 2.44 goals per home match and concede just 0.56 goals while Ludogorets have won 8, drawn 4 and lost 4 away from home in the Championship Group, averaging 1.81 goals for and 0.75 goals against.
Levski are the clear favourites here at 2.09, with Ludogorets 3.54 and the draw at 3.2, which seems very low. According to our PFC Levski Sofia vs PFC Ludogorets Razgrad betting tips, Levski have a great chance of taking this game on Saturday, especially with home field advantage, and we’re going for Levski to edge the clash in a close game, Both teams to score - No & Under 2.5 goals looks very likely at 1.95 and 1.78 respectively, but the main selection will be Levski to Win.
While the title is already in the bag for Levski, the PFC Levski Sofia vs PFC Ludogorets Razgrad prediction is that they will want to prove to Ludogorets and the rest of the Bulgarian league who is boss, and with the home advantage, we think they’ll secure the win. Ludogorets have some fantastic footballers, but they’ve recently had the upper hand over Levski and it could be a mental game for them on Saturday.
