One of Levski Sofia or AEK Athens will be in the UEFA Champions League main draw. The two clash this Tuesday in the first leg of the qualifying playoffs. Levski will host their Greek opponent in this opening encounter. Levski have the momentum, with their league well on course, and because of that, our prediction favors them.
The Bulgarians are enjoying their time at this early stage of the season. They have already waded through three rounds in the UCL qualifying campaign, winning four of the six matches there.
Making a case for their strong start to the season, Levski are unbeaten in all four league games they’ve played so far, winning all. In their last act, Levski beat Kairat Almaty 1-0 on the road to complete a 2-0 aggregate win.
AEK Athens are just getting into the competition after only playing their first game of the season last week. The Greek side played out a 2-2 draw with OFI Crete in their domestic Super Cup to start their season.
They would go on to lose on post-match penalties, a game they failed to establish firm control in. The visitors will want to see an improvement to that as they seek a place in the CL main draw for the first time since 2018/19.
Last season they took part in the Conference League and went all the way to the quarters where they fell to Rayo Vallecano.

Our Levski Sofia vs AEK Athens Prediction
AEK Athens may be let down in this game by a lack of match fitness given that they are only starting their season. The Greek side couldn’t take full control of their season-opening game against OFI Crete, losing on penalties after a 2-2 draw.
They face a side on a good run in the season, and this being an away game makes things even tougher. Levski Sofia have gone on a good run to start their season and come here unbeaten in 10, with eight wins. Our prediction for Levski Sofia v AEK Athens is that Levski Sofia wins.
