Georgia take on the visitors Bulgaria in the round 4 match in League C of Nations League. The match will be played on Sunday, June 12th at Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena (Tbilisi).
Georgia can set itself serious tasks in the tournament. They actually show nice results within the framework of the League of Nations and achieved something significant. In their debut in this competition, they not only won the group, but also scored 16 points in 6 matches with a goal difference of 12-2. However, then the team played in the weakest division. But this also gave a chance to break into the Euro - it didn’t work out, it all ended in the playoffs. Well, in the qualifying, the Georgians, as a rule, finish penultimate - this was the case last year. But in the summer, Willy Sagnol's men got off to a great start. It is clear that they beat Gibraltar at home - they did not expect anything but the final 4-0. Then, in Razgrad, by the end of half an hour, they managed to score 2 goals against Bulgaria and eventually beat them 5-2. And the main sensation was 3-0 on the field of the potential favorite of the quartet, North Macedonia.

Bulgaria is not impressive against any opponents. The current "lions" do not at all correspond to their nickname - these are at most some kind of "kittens". There are no stars in the team, the lion's share of the players from the current application play in domestic league. And while only 3 - from the local grand, Razgrad. Hence the failures in qualifications, aggravated by the relegation from Division B of the League of Nations. And even at a simpler level, the Bulgarians, to put it mildly, did not become a favorite. On June 2nd, by opening the scoring, they eventually allowed North Macedonia to squeeze an away draw. Then there was a reception by Georgia, and a completely failed duel with a score of 2-5. And it's hard to understand what was worse, this result, or the sensational 1-1 with Gibraltar.
Before this cycle, the national teams played 6 times, and only once the Georgians were able to defeat the stellar composition of the 90s of the last century, the Bulgarians. But in the other 4 matches, including last year's "friendly", Bulgaria turned out to be stronger. Georgia may not repeat the result of the away match. But Bulgaria is in a hole and is unlikely to wake up by Sunday. We bet on the hosting team.
Prediction for the match: Georgia to win.
