Belarus vs Bulgaria Predictions

• Bulgaria have won just once across their last 15 games
• The visitors have won just two of their previous 15 Nations League matches
• Belarus have only suffered two defeats in nine Nations League matches at home

Bulgaria to fall short

Bulgaria are favourites for their Nations League opener away to Belarus, having made an unbeaten start to 2024. However, they’ve drawn three of their four games so far this year, with their only victory coming against Tanzania.

Bulgaria have managed just one victory across their last 15 internationals and their return of two victories from their last 15 Nations League games is a concern.

Belarus have had some tough results so far this year but they can be a problem at home. The hosts finished Euro 2024 qualifying unbeaten in four, while they won two of their final three home matches in that campaign.

In the Nations League, Belarus have lost only twice at home – with those defeats coming against talented Albanian and Slovakian sides. The hosts have also won the previous two meetings between these sides, with Belarus picking up a win in Bulgaria in 2020.

The visitors aren’t offering much at odds-against for a victory, especially considering their questionable record in this competition. Bulgaria finished Euro 2024 qualifying without a victory on the road, which included visits to Lithuania and Montenegro.

Belarus have a solid record behind them in their recent competitive games, so take them to avoid defeat.
