Lineups

Squad Ratings

The overall squad rating for Ludogorets is 7.19, compared to 7.04 for CSKA Sofia. This metric is derived from each player's average match rating across all league appearances this season — anything above 7.00 is considered strong, while below 6.50 signals inconsistency. Ludogorets's highest-rated starter is Caio Vidal (8.03), while CSKA Sofia's best-rated player is J. Eto'o (7.33).

Attacking Output

The starting XI of Ludogorets have contributed 30 goals and 14 assists this season, led by I. Chochev (12G). CSKA Sofia's starters account for 10 goals and 7 assists, spearheaded by I. Pittas (4G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.

Midfield Control

Ludogorets field 11 midfielders averaging 7.19, versus CSKA Sofia's 11 rated 7.04. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 86% for Ludogorets and 82% for CSKA Sofia. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

Ludogorets's starters have collected 28 yellow cards this season, compared to 25 for CSKA Sofia. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of Ludogorets's starting XI is 28.1 (youngest: Erick Marcus (21), oldest: S. Padt (35)), while CSKA Sofia average 27.6 (youngest: F. Lapoukhov (22), oldest: M. Pinto (32)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

Ludogorets's starters average 20 league appearances each, versus 13 for CSKA Sofia. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
