Bulgaria vs Montenegro
The two bands have a rather difficult group.
Bulgaria vs Montenegro are part of Group A, where they will meet with the Czech Republic, England and Kosovo.
Bulgaria played the last official match in November 2018, when it drew 1-1 against Slovenia in the UEFA Nations League. Romania’s neighbors missed the promotion in the League B, after finishing second in Group 3, with 11 points accumulated in 6 stages, 2 less than the Norwegian leader. In the previous qualifying campaign for the World Championship in 2018, Bulgaria finished fourth in a group that included France, Sweden, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Belarus, with 13 points accumulated in 10 stages.
On the other side, Montenegro ended in 3rd position of Group 4 in League C, with 7 points accumulated in 6 stages. S. Mugosa was the key man of today’s UEFA Nations League hosts, with 3 goals scored. The last match of Montenegrins took place in November 2018, when they ceded in front of Romania, 0-1 in the last match of the UEFA Nations League. The guests were almost qualified in the World Championship in 2018, after finishing in the 3rd position of the Qualifying Group E, with 16 points accumulated in 10 stages.
Bulgaria – Montenegro is the derby of the Balkans in this group. The match is very important for both, considering that England and the Czech Republic are part of this group, and today’s failure can significantly lower their chances to qualify. I expect, however, a better duel for Montenegrins who will be pleased with a draw today and have all the physical resources needed to calm the game in their favor.
