CSKA 1948 Sofia and Spartak Varna meet in clearly contrasting conditions. The hosts have just thrashed their opponent 4-0 in their latest league match and have won two in a row, while the visitors have just lost 0-2 at home and have not won in one match. The hosts are the team that dominates possession more over their last 10 matches, in all competitions (53.4% vs 42.1%), and they shoot on target slightly more, but their defense is not especially tight when attacked. Spartak Varna, meanwhile, play a deep defensive game and wait to counter, shooting on target less and conceding more this season (17 conceded from 12 matches), but a trip to Sofia in a situation where they have just lost heavily is not entirely bad, because the hosts' own defense has shown spells of losing focus. If CSKA 1948 Sofia dominate possession and push high like in the match they won 4-0, the game will become an assault on Spartak Varna's deep defensive block, which often ends with the hosts scoring. But if the visitors can hold their shape and counter quickly, the game has a chance to end without much separation, because the hosts' own defense does not keep a completely tight door either.
