Ludogorets Antwerp betting prediction

The away team had direct access to this group stage. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 6 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 13 conceded. In their last match, for the First Division A, they got an away win against Zulte‑Waregem by (1‑3). In the last 10 away matches Antwerp has won 7 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In 10 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but have turned the score around in 3. In the last 7 away matches for all competitions there are 3 periods that stand out: they have scored 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90'); they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (0'‑15') and 3 of their 8 goals between (76'‑90').

The Antwerp side arrive for this game with a 1-3 away victory over ZW, adding in this way the third straight triumph in official games: Cristian Benavente, Faris Haroun and Martin Hongla scored the goals of the team. Note that the visitors are present in this Europa League after winning the 19/20 Belgian Cup. Usually coach Ivan Leko opts for a supported, paused style of play, using the side aisles to create danger to the opponent. The experienced striker Dieumerci Mbokani is the highlight of this team, which is very strong in finishing. For this game the coach cannot use Sander Coopman, a player who is recovering from injury. Quarantined are Jordan Lukaku, Abdoulaye Seck and Alexis de Sart.

Confirmed Lineup: Jean Butez, Simen Juklerød, Dylan Batubinsika, Jeremy Gelin, Koji Miyoshi, Lior Refaelov, Martin Hongla, Cristian Benavente, Pieter Gerkens.
Coach: B. Priske Pedersen.
