The goal timing numbers for both sides point in the same direction: the game will come alive late. CSKA Sofia have scored 37% of their goals in the 76-90 minute period, while OFI have conceded 27% of their goals in the same period. But before the 76th minute, the game is likely to be tight, as CSKA Sofia have also conceded 25% of their goals in the 31-45 minute period, and OFI have scored 26% in the same period. The home side's recent form includes three big wins (3-0, 3-0, 5-0), but they just suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat in their last match. Meanwhile, OFI have won two in a row (3-0, 2-0). This game thus hinges on whether CSKA Sofia can break down a defense that has kept two consecutive clean sheets. If they can do so before OFI settle deep, the game will open up and end with a comfortable margin. But if OFI hold out into the second half, this tip has a high chance of coming through.
