During recent years Ludogorets were the most powerful football team in Bulgaria and easily gained title by title. In previous season there was 16-point gap between "Орлите" and their chasers. In summer the Bulgarians actively participated in friendly fights: they got four wins and two defeats in six matches. In regard to the UEFA Champions League, Ludogorets quite unpredictably faced great difficulties in knocking out Zalgiris 1:2, 4:1. By the way, that away loss to the Lithuanians was the first one on the road for "Орлите" in 2017.
It will be the first head-to-head for the opponents. Taking into consideration H. Beer Sheva's results at the home ground, plus their solid start in the UEFA Champions League alongside with the Bulgarians' problems in the previous round, I believe that the hosts will have advantage at the home turf.
Prediction for the match: H. Beer Sheva to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
