Prediction: 2-1
Petrocub
Ludogorets will look to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Levski Sofia when they welcome Petrocub to their Huvepharma Arena on Thursday evening. Even though Ludogorets suffered a heavy 7-2 loss to Qarabag in the Champions League third qualifying round, return leg, they are still seen as favourites to win Thursday’s clash. The good news for the hosts is that Switzerland midfielder Kwadwo Duah has overcome his minor injury.
The Moldovans, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Sheriff Tiraspol at the weekend and given their difficulties on the road, home win should definitely be considered. Talented forward Dan Puscas misses the first leg through suspension, which is yet another reason why we are going to place our bets on the home side this time out. It has to be noted that the two clubs meet for the first time in European competitions.
Highlighted Team (Ludogorets):
Bulgarian football club PFC Ludogorets Razgrad, commonly referred to as Eagles, compete at the Ludogorets Arena with the capacity of 8,000. PFC Ludogorets Razgrad are owned by Kiril Domuschiev, who made it his personal goal to propel the club to domestic and international success and to hold up the Bulgarian flag high with nation’s biggest clubs Levski and CSKA going through turbulent times.
Having seen their stock rise astronomically since 2010, PFK Ludogorets Razgrad have become the first Bulgarian club to be features in the UEFA Champions League group stage twice. Previously, their maiden participation happened in 2014-15 season when the Bulgarian club made headlines due to notable results against FC Basel and Liverpool.
Their success on domestic scene has been equally impressive as PFC Ludogorets Razgrad remain the second team in the world to win a treble after being promoted from the second to the first league. Main force of the Bulgarian club are the Brazilian players, currently eight of them in the squad many of whom hold the Bulgarian citizenship.
