One point between them
Levski Sofia’s most recent Europa League match brought a win; Jagiellonia’s ended in defeat. That contrast frames a meeting between teams close together in the league-stage standings, with a single point separating them after three matches.
Levski are 17th of 36 with four points and a goal difference of zero. Jagiellonia are 27th with three points and a goal difference of minus two. The gap is narrow, but a home victory would give Levski a chance to strengthen their position, while Jagiellonia would move two points above Levski with a win.
Results point in different directions
Levski’s three Europa League results have progressed from defeat to draw to win. Across those matches, they have scored three goals and conceded three. Their only home match in this competition ended in a 1-0 defeat, so this is an opportunity to improve on that opening home result.
Jagiellonia’s run in the competition has been more varied: a win and a draw, followed by two wins, a defeat, another win and then a defeat. Across their seven Europa League matches, they have scored 13 and conceded nine. Away from home in this competition, they have one win, one draw and one defeat, with four goals scored and four conceded.
Their recent scoring figures suggest Jagiellonia can threaten: they scored 10 goals across their last five Europa League matches, though they also conceded seven. Levski’s last three in the competition produced three goals for and three against.
Absences on both sides
Levski are without P. Hristov, O. Kamdem and M. Sangare, all off the roster, while R. Kirilov is out with a knee injury and A. Mitkov is unavailable through injury.
Jagiellonia’s absences include D. Drachal, C. Polak and Z. Zalewski, who are off the roster, as well as inactive N. Wojtuszek.
Our prediction
The standings make this a valuable chance for Levski to widen the gap, and their latest European result offers a boost. Jagiellonia have shown greater scoring output across their Europa League campaign, but their latest defeat and a mixed away record leave room for Levski to take control.
PreviaXI’s model favours the hosts, pointing to Levski’s stronger outlook in a match that may be decided by a narrow margin.
