Betting Insights
- The Slovenians are 2.42 to win as opposed to 2.87 for FC Ararat-Armenia, who are 3.2 to draw and that looks about right.
- Vítor Campelos has got his players playing proactive soccer, which is good to see, and their high-tempo pressing has seen them edge through some tricky European matches, including a recent 3-3 draw with KF Egnatia.
Prediction
- Celje's 4-2-3-1 formation is more patient, but the visitors will still try to keep the ball and pin their hosts back.
- Tulipa has his side organised and hard to break down, which can be an advantage when they sit back and look to hit teams on the break.
- Celje are undefeated in four away (3 wins, 1 draw), so they can certainly make this close at half-time and full-time.
- Backing Celje at 2.42 could be the way to play it in this tough tie.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.75 is also tempting because Celje's attacking numbers keep the upset on the table.
