Attacking Output

Sangare (7G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.

Defensive Solidity

Ludogorets deploy 4 defenders rated 7.07 on average, against Levski Sofia's 4-man backline averaging 7.10. Higher defensive ratings suggest better positional awareness, fewer individual errors, and a greater likelihood of keeping clean sheets. The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Midfield Control

Ludogorets field 5 midfielders averaging 7.24, versus Levski Sofia's 5 rated 7.06. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Forward Threat

Ludogorets start 1 forward(s) averaging 6.81, compared to 1 for Levski Sofia averaging 7.52. Forward ratings capture shot accuracy, movement off the ball, dribbling success, and involvement in build-up play — they indicate who carries the greater goal threat on the day.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 83% for Ludogorets and 83% for Levski Sofia. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

Ludogorets's starters have collected 39 yellow cards this season, compared to 43 for Levski Sofia. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of Ludogorets's starting XI is 26.8 (youngest: Erick Marcus (21), oldest: A. Nedyalkov (32)), while Levski Sofia average 26.1 (youngest: A. Mitkov (20), oldest: M. Lukov (32)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

Ludogorets's starters average 29 league appearances each, versus 23 for Levski Sofia. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
