PAOK’s defensive setup at the Stadio Toumbas is notably organized, as seen in their recent string of clean sheets and 0-0 results against top domestic rivals like AEK Athens. Since this is the first leg of the play-offs, Celta Vigo is likely to adopt a more conservative away strategy to ensure the tie remains alive for the return leg in Spain, further increasing the chance of a tight, defensive battle with fewer than three goals.

Under 2.5 Goals
Ludogorets Razgrad vs Ferencvarosi TC
Europa League
Despite the expectation for both teams to score, a disciplined tactical battle in this first-leg knockout tie is likely to keep the total scoreline low. Playoff openers often prioritize defensive stability over risk-taking, and historical data between these two—including a 0-0 draw earlier this season—suggests they can neutralize each other effectively. A tightly contested 1-1 draw is a statistically favored outcome, allowing both teams to remain competitive heading into the second leg in Hungary.

What is an under 2.5 prediction in football betting?
In football, betting under 2.5 refers to a wager on the total number of goals scored in a match. Specifically, this type of bet means you are predicting that the combined score of both teams will be fewer than three goals. If the game ends with zero, one, or two goals in total, the bet wins. However, if the teams' combined score is three or more goals, the bet loses.
This type of bet is popular for football matches with under 2.5 goals because it allows bettors to focus on matches that are expected to be tight or defensively strong. Teams with solid defensive records, or games where both sides struggle to score, often make good candidates for an under 2.5 football prediction.
