Olimpija Ljubljana vs Ludogorets Predictions

• Olimpija have seen both teams score in four of their last five games
• The hosts have seen BTTS land in six of their last seven European qualifiers
• Ludogorets have conceded in five of their last six Champions League ties

Missed opportunity for hosts

Ludogorets are the favourites in this tie, but will they view their 1-1 draw in the first leg as a missed opportunity? They fell behind early on to Olimpija, with the Slovenian side picking up where they left off after a good win over the champions of Latvia.

The hosts are surely gaining in confidence in their first outing in this competition since 2018 and they now have home advantage in the second leg with the tie finely poised. While Ludogorets are still favoured to progress thanks to their European experience, they’re going to have to do it the hard way.

Back goals with hosts in scoring mood

Olimpija have seen both teams score in each of their three European games this term, winning 2-1 home and away to Valmiera in the last round. They’ve now seen BTTS land in six of their last seven European qualifiers, while BTTS has also landed in four of their five games this season across all competitions.

Ludogorets come into this clash having conceded in five of their last six games in the Champions League, but they’ve also scored 10 goals across their last three games. The visitors are expected to prove too strong in this second-leg, but with a patchy clean sheet record and the hosts’ looking confident going forward both teams to score appeals most.
