Fixtures with Septemvri Sofia have often been exciting ones recently with a lot of goalmouth action being the norm. Over their past six games, a total of 20 goals have flown in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.33 goals per game) with 5 of them belonging to Septemvri Sofia.
Lokomotiv Plovdiv

Following on from being beaten in their last game against Slavia Sofia in First League competition, Lokomotiv Plovdiv and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
Ivan Minchev (15') was the scorer for Slavia Sofia.
Over the course of 5 of the past 6 clashes featuring Lokomotiv Plovdiv, a relatively low number of goals have been hit between them and their opponents.

Team News: Lokomotiv Plovdiv
Owing to an otherwise healthy squad, there’s just the one fitness problem for the Lokomotiv Plovdiv boss Dušan Kosič to contend with. Kristiyan Peshov (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be in action.

We think that Septemvri Sofia could find themselves up against it to put one past this Lokomotiv Plovdiv lineup who will likely do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We’re therefore seeing a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 win for Lokomotiv Plovdiv at full-time.
Let’s see what happens.
