About this match

**Levski's hosting a heavyweight in European cup football, and Red Bull Salzburg aren't here to mess around.** The Austrian side are rolling (4W-1D), while the Bulgarian outfit have home advantage and decent domestic form — but that H2H is *brutal*: 0-2 to Salzburg. 🔴

Levski will lean on that stadium energy and their recent 3W-1D-1L run. Salzburg just demolished Austria Wien 4-1 and Rapid 5-1 at home, so they're dripping with confidence heading into enemy territory.

Key storylines:

- **Red Bull Salzburg's attacking firepower** — Baidoo and Vertessen are clinical finishers in a side that's put four and five past domestic rivals lately
- **Levski's defensive solidity at Georgi Asparuhov** — Centelles and Serafimov will anchor the back line in what's their biggest audition this season
- **Reinaldo and Trdin** vs Salzburg's midfield press — the Sofia duo need to control tempo or get overrun

Expected lineups:

- **Levski Sofia**: Vutsov, Centelles, Serafimov, Dimitrov, Aldair, Serginho, Trdin, Reinaldo, Soula, Perea, Bala
- **Red Bull Salzburg**: Zawieschitzky, Schmid, Boma, Zabransky, Veratschnig, Barry, Mazurek, Tabaković, Kitano, Baidoo, Vertessen

Prediction:

**0-2 Red Bull Salzburg.** Salzburg's on a different level right now — expect them to nick this despite the away crowd. 🎯
