Septemvri Sofia vs Botev Vratsa prediction 05.06.2023

• Competition: Parva Liga, Relegation Group
• Date: Monday, 5th June 2023
• Kickoff: 16:30 UK / 17:30 CEST
• Venue: Stadion Dragalevtsi (Sofia)

In the last round of the Parva Liga Relegation Group, Septemvri Sofia are without a chance to secure survival. They won only 25 points in 34 rounds and are currently four points away from the 14th-placed Hebar and the relegation playout. In the 32nd round, Septemvri Sofia had a solid situation, but with two losses against direct rivals (Hebar and Spartak Varna) they ruined their chances and will return to the second tier of Bulgarian football next season. 

Botev Vratsa are the best team in this relegation group despite losing the previous two games. They are in 11th place with three points away from 14th-placed Hebar, but because they have a better h2h score, they are safe from relegation. 

Septemvri Sofia vs Botev Vratsa pick: Under 2.5 goals

These teams have nothing to play for in the last round. And even though we often see high-scoring games in the last rounds, I do not see these teams scoring too many goals since they are among the worst in goals scored this season. Both teams scored only 28 goals in 34 rounds. 

On top of that, both teams are in bad form, especially the home side. Septemvri Sofia lost nine of the last ten games, and recently they have been really bad offensively. They failed to score in four of the previous six matches. 

We have seen fewer than three goals in the previous three h2h games. The last h2h game was a goalless draw with only one shot on goal for both teams combined.
