It's been rough for Sokol Markovo so far, and I guess you could say the same about Karnobat. The strugglers have a chance for some much needed points here.
- Sokol Markovo haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
- Karnobat have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Sokol Markovo form and stats

Markovo has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadion Sokol. We remember; it was Yambol 1915.
No payout for Markovo in their previous match, an away game at Chernomorets 1919 Burgas that ended in defeat 1-5. Sokol Markovo were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Sokol Markovo have conceded 28 from these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Karnobat form and stats

The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Karnobat have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Atletik Kuklen game.
The supporters enjoyed Karnobat's previous game versus Izvor Gorski izvor (placed 8th), a 3. League Southeast 2-0 win played at home.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Gigant Saedinenie wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.The visitors have scored 12 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Karnobat manager has some worries about the defense as 34 goals have been conceded in these travels.
