Prediction: 2-0
Luxembourg
Bulgaria will be looking to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Northern Ireland when they face Luxembourg on Saturday evening. The Bulgarians proved their worth in that narrow victory, with the team keeping their second clean sheet in the process. The hosts should rely on a solid backline and hope to find some attacking rhythm against the struggling Luxembourg side.
The visitors, on the other hand, made a slow start to their campaign, losing to both Northern Ireland and Belarus. Luxembourg will need a much-improved performance to challenge Bulgaria. CSKA Sofia defender Mica Pinto is pushing for a starting spot, while there are no fresh injury worries in the away team. However, Bulgaria’s momentum and home advantage should be enough to see them claim another victory here. Taking everything into account, we predict that Bulgaria are going to give fans yet another reason to celebrate on Saturday.
Highlighted Team (Bulgaria):
Bulgaria national football team are well known for their “Golden generation” of players led by Hristo Stoichkov. The Bulgarian football legend was producing thrilling performances for the national team at the 1994 FIFA World Cup in USA and he helped the Lions make it to the semi-finals of the tournament.
The likes of Trifon Ivanov, Krasimir Balakov and Yordan Letchkov enjoyed a very successful tournament as well and, no doubt, they recorded a historical result at the 1994 FIFA World Cup. The Bulgarians defeated Germany in the quarter-finals, but Italy proved to be a big catch for Dimitar Penev’s team. Bulgaria eventually suffered a heavy loss to Sweden in the third-place playoffs. Nowadays, Bulgaria struggle in qualifiers for major tournaments and it has to be noted that they have not participated at the finals since 1994.
Vasil Levski National Stadium is considered Bulgaria’s home ground and the capacity of the stadium is 43.320. Bulgaria wear white shirts, green shorts and white socks when playing at home, whilst green and red are their second colours.
