Team News

The home side cannot call upon former Aberdeen defender Stefan Gartenmann. The Switzerland international has been out since Christmas with a knee injury.

Ludogorets almost have a clean bill of health. The one weapon manager Per-Mathias Hogmo will not have in his holster is midfielder Aguibou Camara. The 24-year-old underwent surgery for a muscle injury and is not expected back until April.

 Ferencvaros vs Ludogorets Stats

  • Both Ferencvaros and Ludogorets progressed to the knockout phase without emphasising possession. Ferencvaros have averaged 47.2% of the ball in this year’s Europa League while Ludogorets have averaged 47.7% possession.
  • Ludogorets forwards Petar Stanic and Caio Vidal are joint-second in the Shots on Target metric for this season’s competition, with 12 on-target strikes each. Stanic has tucked away seven of those while Vidal is yet to score

Petar Stanic to score anytime @ 10/3

The 24-year-old has hit the ground running since joining Ludogorets from Serbian side TSC over the summer. Seven goals plus an assist in 11 Europa League matches this term makes him a crucial element of the Bulgarian side’s continental mission.

Stanic has the joint-second most shots in the competition this season, along with teammate Caio Vidal. Look for the Serbia under-21 international to make an impact in this crucial second leg.

Draw or Ludogorets @ 5/4

Ferencvaros are favourites to win on the night and it is easy to see why. Unbeaten at home in this season’s competition, the only teams to beat them at all are Nottingham Forest and tonight’s opponents.

But that psychological edge combined with the unique mentality needed to come from behind in a second leg will, I predict, put paid to Ferencvaros’ hopes here. The draw is in this bet to guard against the retention of that unbeaten record. But I’m not convinced the hosts will do enough to win.
