• Spartak Varna enters the match on a three-match draw streak
• Lokomotiv Sofia remains winless in their newest six listed matches
• Lokomotiv Sofia has conceded in every one of their newest six listed matches
• Spartak Varna has avoided defeat in their two most recent home fixtures

Spartak Varna appears better placed to take something from this fixture given their relative stability at home and their recent unbeaten run of three matches. While Lokomotiv Sofia has shown some attacking intent in their recent away draws, their inability to secure a win or keep a clean sheet suggests they may struggle against a Spartak side that has been difficult to beat at home in recent weeks.
