Bansko shared the glory with Pirin Razlog in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1.
Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Vitosha Bistritsa.The match schedule is unforgiving for Bansko as they have a new game in only two days, a 3. League Southwest match thankfully also at home. Septemvri Sofia II are visiting.
Sozopol form and stats
