Ludogorez – Shkendija Tip Europa League, Qualification, Playoffs, Second Leg on Thursday, 08/28/25 at 7:30 p.m.
It’s already bitter enough for the Ludogorez Razgrad club management that they have once again missed out on qualifying for the Champions League group stage – and now missing out on the Europa League would be a real disaster.
They already lost the first leg 1-2 – and that against a club that the Bulgarians should have clearly dominated.
According to my Ludogorez Shkendija tip, however, the picture will finally be set straight on Thursday – and a first-class odds boost will also be used. Because I firmly believe that the hosts will successfully turn the tide.
My Ludogorez Shkendija tip: HT/FT 1/1
These are the arguments for my tip:
- For Ludogorez, elimination from the EL would be a disaster!
- Shkendija is not used to this kind of spotlight!
- Ludogorez has lost only one home competitive game so far in 2025!
Ludogorez vs. Shkendija AI predictions:
The Ludogorez Shkendija AI prediction that ChatGPT gave me on request makes perfect sense, I have to say!
I really like “Ludogorez wins with a handicap of -2,” for example. On the one hand because of the odds of around 3.40 and on the other because of the Bulgarians’ proven home strength.
After all, only FC Midtjylland has won at the Huvepharma Arena in 2025.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Ludogorez Rasgrad win |
Draw |
Shkendija win |
| 72.3% |
18.9% |
8.8% |
I also really like the suggestion “Over 3.5 goals.” The opponent does not have an impenetrable defense, and if the Bulgarians put their minds to it, they could score several times in the first half.
Meanwhile, “Ludogorez to win” promises a profit factor of 1.50 in the Bet-at-home app and also has my full support. Sooner or later, the hosts should qualify for the next round, and I agree with the AI assistant on that!
