The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match.

CSKA 1948 Sofia form and stats

Things are running smoothly for Sofia who hasn't tasted defeat in their last ten matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Kariana Erden. Sofia has been amazing away for a time now, winning four in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Kariana Erden.

Sofia delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against CSKA Sofia (placed 8th) in their previous match; a Parva Liga game. It was a Bulgarian Cup defeat before that one as the away game against Lokomotiv Plovdiv wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

It looked so good for CSKA 1948 Sofia vs CSKA Sofia, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw.
