Ludogorets vs Midtjylland Prediction and Betting Tips | January 23rd 2025

Ludogorets and Midtjylland are back in action in the Europa League when they square off at the Ludogorets Arena on Wednesday. The Bulgarian outfit have failed to taste victory in the competition and will head into the midweek clash looking to end this dry spell.

Ludogorets failed in their bid to secure a morale-boosting result before Europa League action as they suffered a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Shakhtar Donetsk in a friendly last Wednesday.

Before that, Igor Jovicevic’s men were on an 11-game unbeaten run across all competitions, claiming seven wins and four draws - a run which has seen them open up a 13-point lead at the top of the Bulgarian top-flight standings.

While Ludogorets are flying high in the league, they have struggled to impose themselves in the Europa League, failing to win their six matches so far as they sit 32nd in the table with just three points from a possible 18.

Elsewhere, Midtjylland turned in a resilient team display last time out when they fought back from behind to snatch a 3-2 victory over RB Salzburg in a friendly at the Estádio Algarve.

Prior to that, Thomas Thomasberg’s men were condemned to 2-0 defeat against Porto in the Europa League on December 12, extending their losing streak to three games in the European second-tier competition.

Having kicked off their Europa League campaign with one draw and two victories from their first three matches, Midtjylland have picked up seven points from a possible 18 to sit 24th in the table.

Ludogorets vs Midtjylland Prediction

Midtjylland currently occupy the final playoff qualifying spot in the Europa League table and will be desperate to secure all three points as they look to keep their European quest alive.

However, they have struggled to get going on the road in recent weeks and we fancy Ludogorets to claim a narrow victory in front of their home supporters.
