Levski Sofia vs CSKA Sofia Prediction: Eternal Derby Betting Tips & Stats

The Levski Sofia vs CSKA Sofia prediction is on every Bulgarian football fan’s mind as the Eternal Derby returns on November 8, 2025, at 13:00 GMT. With both teams hungry for points and pride, this Round 15 First League match at Georgi Asparuhov Stadium promises drama, passion, and, if history is any guide, a few surprises for bettors and neutrals alike.

Form Guide, Tactics, and Team News: What to Expect

Let’s break down the current state of play before we get into our Levski Sofia vs CSKA Sofia prediction and betting tips:

  • Levski Sofia are flying high at the top of the First League, boasting 10 wins, 2 draws, and just 1 loss from 13 matches. Their attack is sharp, with 25 goals scored, and their defense is tight, as seen in their recent run of four unbeaten games. At home, Levski have been especially tough, with 6 wins and 1 draw.
  • CSKA Sofia are having a more modest campaign, sitting 7th with 3 wins, 7 draws, and 3 losses. Their 15 goals show they can find the net, but consistency has been a problem. Away from home, CSKA have just 1 win in 7 matches, so they’ll need to dig deep in this derby.

On the tactical front, Levski’s confidence and attacking style are likely to continue, especially at home. Expect them to press high and look for early goals. CSKA, on the other hand, may opt for a more cautious setup, hoping to frustrate their rivals and strike on the counter. With both teams aware of the stakes, don’t be surprised if things get a little tense—yellow cards are almost as common as goals in this fixture!

  • Injuries & Suspensions: Levski have a full squad, though Marin Petkov is walking a suspension tightrope. CSKA are missing left winger Kevin Dodaj and centre-back Lumbardh Dellova, which could stretch their defensive options.
  • Head to Head: The Eternal Derby has seen 60 meetings since 2.154, with CSKA edging it 24 wins to Levski’s 15, and 21 draws. However, Levski won the last meeting 1-0, showing they know how to get it done when it matters.
  • Market Values: Levski’s squad is valued at €29.10m, almost double CSKA’s €17.55m, underlining their status as favorites.

Levski Sofia vs CSKA Sofia Prediction: AI Betting Tips & Odds Analysis

Now, let’s get nerdy with the numbers and see what our AI-driven Levski Sofia vs CSKA Sofia prediction says about this Eternal Derby.

  1. 1X2 Market: The home win is priced at 2.15, a draw at 3.06, and an away win at 3.5. Our AI leans towards a Levski victory, giving a confidence level of 3.4/10 and odds of 2.15. It’s not a slam dunk, but Levski’s form and home advantage make them the logical pick.
  2. Under/Over 2.5 Goals: The top betting tip here is under 2.5 goals, with odds of 1.57 and a slightly higher confidence level of 3.5/10. This makes sense: Levski’s last three games have all seen two goals or fewer, and derbies are often cagey affairs with defenses on top.
  3. Predicted Score: The AI model forecasts a 2.15 win for Levski Sofia, with a 1:0 lead at halftime. This fits the pattern of recent head-to-head meetings, where Levski have edged out narrow victories.

For those who love a little history, remember that in their last meeting on October 19, 2024, Levski won 1-0. And while CSKA have the edge in the long-term head to head, recent momentum is with Levski.

Final Betting Tips and Takeaways

  • Best Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 1.57 looks solid, especially with both teams likely to play it safe early on.
  • Result Prediction: Levski Sofia to win (1X2 home win) at 2.15 is the value pick, given their current form and squad strength.
  • Scoreline: 2.15 to Levski Sofia, with a 1:0 halftime lead, is the AI’s best guess.

In summary, our Levski Sofia vs CSKA Sofia prediction points to a tight, low-scoring affair, with Levski’s quality and home support tipping the scales. As always, bet responsibly—and remember, in the Eternal Derby, anything can happen (except, it seems, a goal fest).
