Ludogorets won the elite Bulgarian division last season, recording 70 points in 32 matches in the league league with 55-21 aggregate goal difference. Ludogorets finished 14 points ahead runners-up. Upcoming match will be the first for the team since the end of last season and we can expect to see number of new players from academy and mixed lineup.
The opponents haven’t met before. The friendly will be the first match for Bulgarian champion since May and Slavia Prague show to performance against lower-level team so we shouldn’t expect number of goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
