Command Analysis

Botev Plovdiv

Current form
Before the start of the season, Botev was considered a competitor for Ludogorets in the fight for the championship title, although Dusan Kerkez team initially had very little chance. In general, the Canaries have been playing at a high level in the first part of the season, occupying second place in the table with 37 points. The gap from Ludogorets is already seven points, which only theoretically leaves a chance for success. Having beaten Lokomotiv 1:0 in the last round, Botev won its 12th victory of the season.

Krumovgrad

Current form
Before the start of the season, Levski was one of the obvious contenders for a place in the top eight, but played the first round clearly below its level. At the moment, Atanas Ribarski team is in 10th place in the table with 20 points and is five points behind eighth-placed CSKA, but a game in reserve leaves a decent chance to catch up with the competitor in the near future. Having drawn a goalless draw with Arda in the last round, Levski extended its unbeaten streak to three matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
The visitors have no problems with their lineup.
Interesting trends for betting

- Levski have scored in their last three away matches

Botev is chasing Ludogorets and is still a title contender – the Canaries will obviously try to keep the intrigue in the championship race as long as possible. Today, the hosts will obviously try to take the maximum and, in general, the task is not the most difficult for them – Levski is seriously inferior in class and it will be almost impossible for the gold diggers to hold out at Hristo Botev.
