Universitatea Craiova will be looking to overturn a 1-0 deficit when they welcome Levski Sofia in the second leg of their Europa Conference League qualifying tie. The Romanian side head into the crucial clash after suffering a heavy 5-1 defeat against Dinamo București in the domestic championship, which will raise some concerns ahead of this European test. Their defensive problems were further highlighted by the injury to defender Ronaldo Webster, who was forced off at the weekend. Still, Craiova have been impressive at home recently, winning four of their last five matches on their own turf while averaging 2.60 points per game. They will need a much more clinical attacking display after failing to score in four of their last ten outings.
Levski Sofia arrive in excellent spirits after securing a narrow advantage in the first leg. The Bulgarian giants have won four consecutive matches in all competitions, including a 2-1 league victory over Lokomotiv Sofia, and confidence is growing within the squad. Levski have been particularly strong defensively, conceding just 0.50 goals per game across their last ten matches while keeping five clean sheets. With no fresh injury concerns, the visitors will look to stay compact and use their counter-attacking opportunities to protect their lead.
The first leg was a low-scoring affair, and Levski are likely to prioritise defensive organisation. Therefore, we believe that there is big value in betting on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time and Draw.
This Champions League match will be played on Wednesday 29 July 2026 at 18:30.
