CSKA Sofia host Slavia Sofia in a league game where the table makes clear the two teams stand in different places. The hosts lead the standings with 30 points from 12 matches and are still unbeaten in the league, while the visitors sit 8th with 12 points from the same number of games. The two sides' most recent matches ended with scores that feel very different: the hosts won away 2-0, while the visitors drew 0-0 at home in a game where they barely created chances. CSKA Sofia have gone through 12 league matches without losing, winning 9 and drawing 3, scoring 29 and conceding 9, but in their last 5 matches they have won by two goals or more only 2 times. The rest were games that had to be nervy until the end, including a 3-2 win and a 2-2 draw in Europe. The attack still produces goals consistently, but the defence lets opponents come back more often than the season totals suggest. Slavia Sofia have it heavier still: in 12 league matches they have won only 2 and drawn 6, scoring just 9 goals, and in their last 5 matches they have never lost by two goals. The defence stands firm but the trade-off is a very thin attack. The shape measured over the last 10 matches points the same way. CSKA Sofia have 56.3% possession and 6.4 shots on target per game, compared with Slavia Sofia at 46.3% possession and only 2.75 shots on target per game (from 8 matches). If the hosts score first from the sustained attacks as expected, the game should open up even more for them to push on, because the visitors have no choice but to push up, which will open more space for the hosts' attack to work.
