It's game day two of the First League campaign and all to play for. Check out our detailed preview of Beroe-Arda!
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

The season before, Beroe's league stats were 7 wins, 6 draws and 17 losses, leading to 12th spot in the First League. Over these 30 matches they scored {26 goals} and let in 47. Performing at their own stadium in the last season Beroe managed 5-2-8 (win-draw-lost) with {15 goals} and 23 conceded.
A strong away win for Beroe against OFK Pirin the last match, as Triboulet (2) were on target.
Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Sportist Svoge.There will be little rest for Beroe after this match as they are travelling to Hebar 1918 for a First League game in only four days.

Arda's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Cherno More that finished 3-3. As you can tell from the result, the match against Cherno More was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Levski Sofia's place.After this away game Arda return home for a First League game against CSKA 1948 Sofia. That game is only four sleeps after this.
