This match features two teams living in the basement of the Vtora Liga, Neftohimik holding 15th place and Sozopol lying 13th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Sozopol form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Sozopol so far with only 1 point returning home. The records show 0-1-5 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Sozopol's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Sozopol delivered a 3-3 draw playing at home against Lokomotiv G. Oryahovitsa (placed 11th) in their previous match; a Vtora Liga game. A 0-1 defeat away at Sportist Svoge before that.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Lokomotiv G. Oryahovitsa was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 6 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Sozopol manager M. Dimov has some worries about the defense as 12 goals have been conceded in these travels.
