Vasil Levski National Stadium will host a highly-anticipated Europa Conference League second qualifying round first-leg clash between Levski Sofia and Universitatea Craiova. The Bulgarian giants made a perfect start to the new domestic campaign, beating Dunav Ruse 2-1 in their league opener, while they also impressed in Europe by cruising past Borac Banja Luka 5-1 on aggregate in the previous round. Reinaldo was the standout performer in that tie, scoring twice in the 4-0 second-leg victory, and he will once again be a key attacking threat. Levski have been particularly strong at home, winning four of their last five matches there and conceding just 0.4 goals per game.
Universitatea Craiova arrive in Sofia unbeaten in their last ten matches and full of confidence after eliminating ML Vitebsk in the opening qualifying round. The Romanian side have been extremely difficult to break down, conceding just 0.3 goals per game over their last ten fixtures and keeping seven clean sheets. Defender Nicusor Bancu is expected to return to the starting lineup after an impressive display against UTA Arad, providing another boost for a well-organised defence. However, their away attacking numbers have been less convincing, with only one goal scored per match on average in their last five away games.
Both teams rely on defensive stability, with Universitatea conceding only 0.3 goals per game recently. Therefore, we believe that punters worldwide can find value in betting on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This Champions League match will be played on Wednesday 22 July 2026 at 18:30.
