Both teams have demonstrated consistent scoring ability recently, with Slovan netting 14 goals in six matches and Celje scoring in six consecutive games. Despite Slovan's strong defensive record, Celje's offensive threat, led by Mario Kvesic, increases the probability of goals at both ends. This balance supports the BTTS route, as Celje's leaky defense is likely to concede, while their attack should breach Slovan's defense at least once.
