Recap
The head coach of Botev Plovdiv, Dusan Kerkez has serious problems with absence for the trip to Razgrad. He can’t count on first goalkeeper Hankić (6/0), Rabeï (5/0), Emmanuel (4/0), Rabotov (3/0), Amadou (1/0), Mertens, and Brahimi, while two other players  Tamm (6/0) and Steponavicius (4/0) played their European qualifiers matches with the national teams of Estonia and Lithuania and their appearance in the starting lineup is questionable. After a series of 6 winless matches, they won against newly promoted Etar and Slavia Sofia, but I doubt that they will have a chance against the current champions and best league team Ludogorets. The home side needed to win to climb back towards the top of the table, and 5 consecutive wins at Huvepharma Arena in their mutual matches.
