Should you bet on a draw? Belarus vs Bulgaria Prediction
Belarus
One of the first-round matches of the UEFA Nations League will take place in Hungary, where Belarus will face Bulgaria on the neutral ground of "ZTE Stadium." Here’s a match prediction from the Dailysports expert team.
Belarus
The Belarusian national team continues to struggle on the international stage, going winless in their last four matches, all of which were friendlies. In this stretch, Belarus managed only one draw—a 0-0 tie with Malta—while suffering defeats against Montenegro (0-2), Russia (0-4), and Israel (0-4).
However, in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, "The White Wings" performed more confidently, especially towards the end of the campaign. The team went unbeaten in their last four matches, securing two wins and two draws, including a thrilling 3-3 draw against Switzerland. Despite this strong finish, it wasn’t enough to advance to the European Championship, as Belarus finished fourth in their group, failing to break into the top two.
Bulgaria
The Bulgarian national team has been more consistent in recent matches, avoiding defeat in their last six games. However, they managed just one victory during this period—a narrow 1-0 win over Tanzania. The remaining friendlies ended in draws, including 1-1 with Azerbaijan, 0-0 with Romania, and 1-1 with Slovenia. It’s worth noting that some of these opponents are quite formidable.
In the closing stages of their Euro 2024 qualification campaign, Bulgaria also remained unbeaten, though only managing two draws. Overall, the team performed as group outsiders, finishing last in their group. Bulgaria failed to win any matches, ending the qualifiers with an equal number of draws and losses—four each.
