Petrocub vs Ludogorets Prediction & Betting Tips (29 August)

Reigning Moldovan champion, thus ending the reign of FC Sheriff Tiraspol, Petrocub is engaged in a hell of a European qualification epic. After starting in the Champions League by defeating Ordabasy 0-0 in the first round and winning 1-0 in the return, he subsequently fell to the Cypriots of APOEL Nicosia, losing 1-2 in both matches. In the 3rd round of qualifying for the next Europa League, the locals defeated TNS The New Saints, notably thanks to their success in the first leg 1-0, 0-0 in the return on the road. Now engaged in this final play-off, the step seems to be too high with a heavy defeat in the first leg in Bulgaria 4-0 and probably already one foot and four toes in the Conference League. The Super Liga has resumed its rights and after 2 short days played, Petrocub has 3 points following its victory last weekend against Dacia Buiucani 2-0. Ludogorets no longer needs to be presented, a renowned Bulgarian club with its 13 national champion titles, he will try to qualify for this Europa League.

It is very often that this team qualifies to play in Europe, whether in C3 or C4, and it is not to be underestimated. In the first leg, the Greens and Whites were nervous following their defeat in the 3rd qualifying round of the Champions League against Qarabag, despite their victory in the first leg on the road and reduced to ten against eleven at the very end of the match 1 -2. The return match ended with a score of 3-7 after overtime. The Bulgarian championship is back in action and obviously, the reigning champion is not sparing itself having won its first four matches against Beroe last weekend 0-1, Levski 1-0, Arda 5-1 and CSKA Sofia 1-0. 

This evening, we can already note the return from suspension of the offensive Dan Puscas (3 goals in the league last season) while the starting goalkeeper Razak Abalora, the defender Maxim Potirniche and the crucial Clescenco (7 goals the last season) are still injured and OUT for this 2nd round. Preserved in the championship, Ambros (10 goals in the league last season) will try to fuel the last hopes of qualification. He will probably be accompanied by Platica (also 10 pawns last year) without forgetting Jardan (4 achievements last year) and Demian (3 achievements).  Monstrous in the title race last year, Bernard Tekpetey (10 pawns) is today an injured boy and probably forced to stay at home. He is ultimately the only one who should miss this final match to reach the Europa League.

To discuss the strong elements of the start of the season, particularly in the league, let's talk about Spanish midfielder Son (2 goals), preserved in the league last weekend, or Delev, author of a goal and an assist in the league. Author of 2 pawns in the Champions League qualifiers, Duah (13 goals, 3 assists last year in the Bulgarian elite) should be there this evening. The latter also found the fault in the first leg like Seco (14 goals, 4 cakes in the championship last year), and Almeida, author of a double.
