Ludogorets were a bit of a surprise in this year’s Europa League group stage, and they still have a good chance of qualifying for the knockout game for the first time in three seasons.

The Eagles had just two points last season and failed to win any of their six group games, but they have taken seven after four games so far this season, including a memorable home 2 -1 win over Roma’s first game.

Ante Symonza’s side beat HJK Helsinki 2-0 at home in their recent Group C tie, thanks to strikes from Danny Gropper and Rick, who were already at the top of Thursday’s rivals Real Betty Sri Lanka’s lead within three points.

Ludogorets came into their most recent Europa League clash in good form, winning each of their last four games in all competitions, including their previous two Bulgarian Serie A games against Belo and Botev Pro Fdiv’s aggregate score was 5-0.

Extending their winning streak could be challenging, as they have lost all seven of their previous meetings with Spanish rivals, including a 3-2 away loss to Real Betis on matchday two.

Ludogorets will be bullish on their chances at home, having already beaten Roma and HJK in front of their fans, pushing Real into a comeback despite a 3-2 loss in Spain Betis.

Nonetheless, Pellegrini’s men will see as favorites for their next game, and they should be strong enough to secure top points and top Group C.
