There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the sole fitness concern for the Beroe Stara Zagora manager Josu Uribe to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust set of players. Stefan Gavrilov (Knee surgery) is sidelined.

Our thinking is that Beroe Stara Zagora should have enough to score against this CSKA Sofia outfit, although one goal may not be as many as they’ll concede.
Therefore, we’re predicting a narrow 1-2 victory for CSKA Sofia when the referee blows the final whistle. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
