Levski Sofia hosts Spartak Varna in a First League encounter on 17 August 2026. The home side enters as clear favourites, boasting an exceptional recent record with eight wins and two draws across their last ten matches. Spartak Varna arrives as visitors with a more inconsistent away record of four wins, three draws, and three losses. Levski's defensive solidity at home—conceding just 0.4 goals per game—contrasts sharply with Spartak's away vulnerability, where they leak 1.13 goals on average. The head-to-head record strongly favours the hosts, who have won four of the last six meetings, including a 3-1 victory most recently.
Form and Head-to-Head
Levski Sofia's home form is dominant, averaging 1.80 goals scored and 0.40 conceded per match. Their last-ten record shows no defeats at home. Spartak Varna, meanwhile, has struggled away from home, averaging 1.87 goals for but 1.13 against. Recent direct encounters tell a clear story: Levski won 2-1 in August 2025 and 3-1 in December 2025, with only one Spartak victory (2-2 draw) in their last six meetings. The visitors' away form has been particularly concerning, with limited shot accuracy and frequent defensive lapses.
Best Bet
The main selection is Total Over 2 goals. Levski Sofia's home potency—scoring in all ten recent home matches—combined with Spartak Varna's away defensive weaknesses creates a strong case for goals. The hosts average 1.80 goals at home while Spartak concedes 1.13 away. Available at 1xBet and Melbet at 3.2 for the draw alternative, this market offers value given the underlying form trends and the likelihood of Levski dominating possession and chances.
Odds to Watch
Levski Sofia to win is priced at 1.9 across Melbet and 1xBet, reflecting their clear superiority in this matchup. For those seeking longer odds, Spartak Varna at 4.33 (Melbet, 1xBet) or 3.65 (1Win) offers value only if backing an upset. The draw at 3.2 (Melbet, 1xBet) or 3.25 (1Win) remains unlikely given Levski's attacking prowess and Spartak's defensive fragility away from home.
