Experienced Ludogorets should avoid defeat against an injury-hit Hapoel Tel Aviv.
Ludogorets remain the benchmark side in this tie, a perennial Bulgarian champion with years of group-stage football and a deeper, more experienced squad than Hapoel Tel Aviv can call on. Hapoel are missing Emmanuel Boateng and Marcus Coco through injury, which thins their attacking options against opponents who know how to manage two-legged European ties. The Israeli hosts will carry ambition and could trouble Ludogorets on the counter, but the Bulgarians' continental know-how should tell over the ninety minutes. Ludogorets have been solid recently, unbeaten in four of their last five, and they will be content to leave with at least a draw before the return in Razgrad. The double chance covering a Ludogorets win or draw sidesteps the risk of a nervy away performance while still siding with the stronger, better-drilled outfit. Expect a controlled visitors' display against a depleted home attack.
