Not a lot of time to rest for the host team, as they featured in a Parva Liga game only four days earlier. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Beroe.

Botev Plovdiv form and stats

Let's have a look at how Botev Plovdiv performed last season in the Parva Liga: They landed a 3rd position in the league table after playing out 13 victories, 7 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 34 and conceded 28 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 7 and lost 4 with 10/15 goals scored/conceded.

Botev Plovdiv might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Hebar 1918 proved too strong as Plovdiv slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Sporten kompleks Botev 1912. That loss was their first after four consecutive league games winning points.

That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Beroe.
