All eyes will be on Gradski stadion Banja Luka when Borac Banja Luka and Levski Sofia meet in the first leg of their Champions League first qualifying round tie. As Borac have gained a lot of experience in European competitions in recent years, we predict a 1-0 home win. The Bosnian champions have built a strong reputation in European competition in recent seasons, and they arrive in solid form after a strong domestic campaign. Luka Juricic, who scored an impressive 27 league goals last season, remains the main attacking threat, while 18-year-old talent Mladen Jurkas is expected to feature in the starting XI. Borac have been extremely hard to beat lately, winning seven of their last ten matches while conceding just 0.4 goals per game and keeping seven clean sheets in that run.
Levski Sofia, meanwhile, come into the tie as Bulgarian champions after lifting their 27th domestic title. Everton Bala is expected to lead the line for the visitors, who have been steady but not spectacular in recent weeks, winning five of their last ten matches and averaging just 1.3 goals scored per game. Their away form has been inconsistent, with only two wins in their last ten road fixtures and a tendency to concede more frequently on their travels. Against a disciplined Borac side in a hostile environment, Levski face a difficult European test.
Given Borac's strong home form and excellent defensive record, Home Win is our main betting tip for this Champions League matchup, alongside Under 2.5 goals and Half-Time Draw (both sides are defensively organised, and first-leg caution is expected).
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 7 July 2026 at 19:30.
