1.35Under 3.5 Goals
2.63Away/Under 3.5

CSKA defeated Derry City 3:2 at home a week ago at the "Vasil Levski" stadium in the first match of the qualifiers for the Europa League. The return leg is next in Ireland, where the Bulgarians will defend their lead.

"The Reds" were better

It is hard to deny that CSKA was more dominant throughout the match, but still, they took a rather fragile lead before the international visit. The only comforting factor is that Derry is far from the glamorous standards even on home soil, so the Bulgarian team has every chance to leave with a victory. Whether this will happen remains to be seen. I assume that the goals will not be as many as in the first match, as CSKA will approach the game a bit more cautiously. Away games are a completely different matter.

Bet on CSKA to win and under 3.5 goals

Let's see if my expectations will really be justified.
