Prediction published on 22/08/2022, 15:58  by Daniel Ngulu in Conference League Prediction

CSKA Sofia have a slim lead heading to Switzerland for their return leg clash against FC Basel in the Europa Conference League. The visitors take a 1-0 lead to this game and will be hoping to seal the job, for a place in the group stages. Basel, the hosts, head to this game on the back of a 5-0 win over Allschwil in a Swiss cup game, the first time they scored in three matches. They’ve actually failed to score in three of their last five matches while they have two clean sheets. In their last home match, Basel lost 2-0 to Lugano, making it the second time in three home games that they failed to score. In the Europa Conference League though, Basel have four wins in five games.

CSKA Sofia are on a strong run coming into this game; they have four wins in their last five matches and three straight wins in the run up to this one. Each of their last three matches ended in a clean sheet for CSKA Sofia and going into this game, they failed to score in just one of the last five matches. Only twice in the last five matches have they scored more than a goal, while each of CSKA Sofia’s last four matches has ended in under 2.5 goals. The visitors do not take a very strong away record to this game but they are unbeaten in the last three, though with just one win in five.
