Team news

Bubacarr Tambedou scored a brace from the bench in Dinamo Batumi’s recent 3-2 win over Iberia 1999 and will be hoping to secure a spot in the starting lineup after also looking sharp in his cameo in Bulgaria.

The hosts are likely to change things up as they chase a two-goal deficit from last week’s clash.

Ludogorets may opt to field an unchanged side from the one that won the first tie between these two teams 3-1.

Match odds

Ludogorets can be backed at 8/11 for the victory, while Dinamo are 11/4 outsiders and the draw is available at 11/4.

Over 2.5 goals is on offer at 4/6, while both teams to score is priced at 4/6 and it is 6/4 for over 1.5 goals in the first half.

Ludogorets @ 8/11

Ludogorets have become something of a staple in European group stages in recent years and they took a significant step closer to the Champions League group stage with a comfortable 3-1 win over Dinamo Batumi in the first game between these two last week.

The Bulgarian side have won 13 straight domestic titles and have gotten the better of Roma, Fenerbahce and Ajax in recent seasons.

That is considerably stronger form than their hosts here have shown and the difference in class told in the first leg.

Andriy Demchenko’s side were limited to just three shots and two corners in that game and look up against it again, even with the home advantage.

Their position in the tie also means that they will have to go for it at some point, which could leave them vulnerable to counterattacks.

The visitors have reached the knockout stages of the Europa Conference League in back-to-back seasons, while their Georgian counterparts have never made it to the group stages, demonstrating the difference in quality and experience there may be in this match.

Over 3.5 goals @ 7/5

One recurring theme in Dinamo Batumi’s recent games has been high-scoring affairs.

Those who like an open and exciting contest will be keen to note that their last four matches have all gone over 3.5 goals.

With the home side having to commit numbers forward at some point as they look to overcome a two-goal deficit, they could leave themselves vulnerable at the back.

Friendlies included, the same can also be said for Ludogorets’ last couple of matches.

Side with four or more goals to be scored in what should be an exciting second leg of this Champions League qualifier at the Batumi Stadium.
