Loko (Sf) hosts Botev (SW) in a key match of the 30th round of the efbet League. For the hosts, the outcome of the match is extremely important because the team is in the relegation zone. "The Red and Black" are 14th in the standings and another loss would aggravate their situation before the playoffs. Danilo Doncic's side have lost four of their last five games. Lokomotiv will not be able to rely on Diogo Teixeira, who has been punished for accumulated yellow cards, reports gong.bg.
The goal ahead of Botev (SW) is the seventh place in the standings and Dusan Kerkez's team is ambitious to collect points. "The Canaries" come to the capital in a great mood after the 1:0 victory over CSKA for the Sesame Cup of Bulgaria. The team will be without its leader and captain Ivelin Popov, who was sent off in the match against the “Reds”. Yannis Karabelov is expected to start in the starting line-up after missing several games due to a hand injury.
In the first clash between the two teams, Dusan Kerkez's players ran over the capital city with 6:0.
