LiontipsLudogorets - Petrocub. Betting Tip and bets on the Europa League match
Command Analysis
Current form
In Bulgaria, there has been no champion other than Ludogorets for a long time. The team has held the title since 2012. In the near future, it is not clear who can compete with the club from Razgrad. And the current season is going according to the usual scenario - three wins in three matches at the start of the domestic championship with a goal difference of 7-1. In the last game, the team beat Levski (1:0).
The main criterion for the success of the "eagles" is the European Cups, but here everything is not going so smoothly. In the Champions League, Georgi Dermendzhiev's charges beat the Dynamo teams from Batumi and Minsk in the first two rounds, but lost to their opponents in one match each. But the Azerbaijani "Karabakh" - one of the discoveries of the last draw of the Europa League, did not forgive the mistakes of the Bulgarians, scoring as many as four goals in the extra time of the return match, and sent the team from the main European tournament to conquer the second most important one.
Disqualifications and injuries
The injured Tekpetey will not help the team.
Interesting trends for betting
- Ludogorets has a 15-match drawless streak (nine wins and six losses)
- On average, 5.67 yellow cards have been shown in matches involving Bulgarians in the current European season
Estimated lineup : Bonmann, Son, Almeida, Verdon, Nedyalkov, Petrovsky, Duarte, Pedro Naressi, Rick, Dua, Nascimento
Current form
Petrocub sensationally became the champion of Moldova last season. The situation for a long time resembled the Bulgarian championship, as Sheriff had not given up the title to anyone since 2016. But Andrei Martin's charges won the decisive tournament of the top six with a huge advantage, and also won the country's cup. However, the team from Hincesti started the new Super League very poorly - only one point in the two opening rounds.
The club also performs with varying success on the international stage. The Moldovans were knocked out of the Champions League by a much more experienced European Cup fighter, the Cypriot APOEL, but at least they will definitely be represented in the main draw of the Conference League - thanks to a minimal victory over the Welsh New Saints (1:0 on aggregate).
Disqualifications and injuries
Petrocub has no problems with its roster.
Interesting trends for betting
- Petrocub wins with a handicap (+1.5) on the road in 17 matches in a row
- The club has not lost away from home in 15 of its last 17 encounters
Estimated lineup : Shmalenya, Bors, Mudras, Duania, Jardan, Lungu, Abanga, Sergiu Platița, Ambros, Mihail Platița, Puskas

1.55Tip and bets
It is unlikely that the visitors will open up Ludogorets' defense today. Petrokub's attack is very weak on the road. In four away matches in all tournaments since the start of the season, the "black and whites" have not scored a single goal. It would be logical to bet that the visitors will not score.
Prediction - Petrocub will not score with odds of 1.80
Bet on the outcome
Ludogorets plays confidently on their home field - they have won nine of their previous ten home matches. Only Karabakh managed to stop the Eagles at their stadium. Petrocub is definitely far from such a high level - not a single away win in official matches since May 1. Even Welsh New Saints managed to cause a lot of problems for the Moldovans at home. We believe that the Bulgarians will easily beat their opponent.
Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1.5) for Ludogorets with odds of 1.88
Bet on total
The efficiency of Petrokub, as we have noted, is at a catastrophically low level. Under Ludogorets, it scores decently and is capable of scoring at least two goals at home against an opponent of inferior class. In three of the five previous matches of the hosts in European cups, the total was under, which we expect today.
Betting Tip - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 2.17
