How the two sides tend to play

The numbers point to two teams with contrasting profiles in front of goal. Levski Sofia scored in only 2 of their last 5 matches, and their single home match in this competition this season ended without a goal for them. They kept a clean sheet in 1 of those 5 matches, and both teams scored in 2 of them.

Jagiellonia Białystok have found the net more regularly, scoring in 4 of their last 5 matches. They also kept a clean sheet in 1 of those games, while both teams scored in 3. Their table record, however, shows 6 goals conceded from 3 matches, the highest figure of either side in the UEFA Europa League standings.

For Levski Sofia, the challenge appears to be turning control into goals at home. The task for Jagiellonia Białystok is to pair their scoring touch with a tighter defensive display than in their most recent match against Anderlecht.

The two sides have contrasting records in the competition. Levski Sofia’s 3 goals scored and 3 conceded suggest matches that have tended to be tight, while Jagiellonia Białystok’s figures of 4 scored and 6 conceded point to more open contests.
