In an otherwise full-strength group, there’s just the lone fitness issue for the Cherno More Varna boss Ilian Iliev to be concerned about. Andreias Calcan (unknown injury) won’t be playing here.
🔮 Prediction
Our assessment here is that Cherno More Varna will need to apply a lot of pressure to breach the defence of this Arda Kardzhali side who we think will score at least once to gain the upper hand.
We therefore see a very competitive game with a 1-0 winning margin for Arda Kardzhali at the end of the 90.
Looking forward to this.
