Command Analysis
Septemvri Sofia
BulgariaCurrent form
Last season, Septemvri finished second in the Bulgarian Second League and earned a well-deserved promotion to the First League. It was immediately clear that it would not be easy for the hosts at a higher level. The team currently occupies 15th place in the standings and is ahead of only Hebar, who is two points behind. In 13 rounds, the club has won only three victories, beating Hebar (2:1), as well as their neighbors from Sofia - CSKA (1:0) and Slavia (3:2). But in recent matches, Septemvri has only been losing. The capital team suffered defeats from Ludogorets (0:2) and Arda (1:2), and also dropped out of the cup, losing in extra time to Lokomotiv from Mezdra.
Disqualifications and injuries
All the home team players are healthy and ready for the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- The hosts have lost four matches in a row
- The team last three home matches ended in defeats
Estimated line-up : Sheitanov - Ochai, Khristov, Onaschi - Polendakov, Moran, Chandarov, Mitkov - Achol - Rupanov, Fourrier.
Botev Plovdiv
BulgariaCurrent form
Last season, Botev only finished ninth in the national championship, but won the Bulgarian Cup. This time, the visitors have once again made a successful start in the cup tournament, beating modest Minor (1:0) from the second league in the first round. The visitors are no less successful in the championship, where they currently occupy second place. However, the whole fight is still ahead, because a number of pursuers are waiting for the mistakes of the club from Plovdiv - even from fifth place, the visitors are only three points ahead. In the last rounds, Botev won minimal victories at their stadium - they managed to beat Levski (1:0), Slavia Sofia (1:0) and Cherno More (1:0).
Thanks to the victory in the cup, the guests had the opportunity to get into the European Cups. In the Europa League qualifiers, they managed to get past Slovenian Maribor (2:1, 2:2), but they were unable to compete with Greek Panathinaikos (1:2, 0:4). In the Conference League, the Plovdiv team lost to Bosnian Zrinjski in a tough fight (2:1, 0:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
The visitors have no problems with the line-up before the match with Septemvri.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team won five games in a row
- In the last ten matches involving Botev, only one goal has been scored
Estimated line-up : Bernat - Baloyannis, Chernev, Kont, Minkov - Koroshets, Karabelev - Nwachukwu, Popov, Ukaki - Triboulet.
Trends
Bet Exact score 0:1
The last five matches of the visitors ended with this score in their favor
6.00Bet Number 1 in the final score
This pattern has worked in Botev last ten matches
1.77Bet At least one team will not score
The last eleven matches of the visitors have followed this scenario
1.62Tip and bets
The visitors climbed so high thanks to their excellent defense. In 12 matches, the team has conceded only five goals. The visitors are quite modest in attack, but this does not prevent them from winning constantly. It is unlikely that one of the league outsiders will be able to break through such a reliable defense. We believe that we should not expect more than two goals scored in this match.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 1.75
Bet on the outcome
The visitors have already won five matches in a row, without conceding a single goal during this period. Even away from home, the club from Plovdiv looks great and will probably continue to achieve positive results. Septemvri has not yet settled into the top division, so we do not think that the Sofia club will beat one of the leaders of the championship.
Our forecast is Asian handicap (-1) on "Botev" with a coefficient of 1.85
Bet on corners
It is unlikely that the opponents will count on corners in this match. Most likely, the teams will attack positionally, which will certainly lead to a small number of corners.
Our prediction is total under 9.5 corners with odds of 1.65
