Bulgaria vs. Belarus - prediction, team news, lineups

Bulgaria

Bulgaria will be looking to make it three wins from three in Nations League Group C4 when they host Belarus on Tuesday.

The Lions currently top the group with six points, two ahead of second-placed North Macedonia.

Bulgaria coach Yasen Petrov is expected to make changes to his side following the 5-2 win over Gibraltar on Saturday.

Ivaylo Chochev and Kiril Despodov could come into the starting lineup, with Valentin Antov and Daniel Mladenov dropping out.

Belarus, meanwhile, are bottom of the group with one point from their two games.

They were held to a 1-1 draw by North Macedonia on Saturday, having lost 2-0 to Georgia on Matchday 1.

Belarus coach Mikhail Markhel is likely to keep faith with the majority of the team that started against North Macedonia.

However, there could be a change in attack, with Vladislav Klimovich coming in for Pavel Savitski.

Bulgaria are the favorites to win this match, given their superior form and home advantage.

However, Belarus will be looking to make amends for their poor start to the campaign and will be no pushovers.

We predict a close match, with Bulgaria ultimately winning 2-1.
