CSKA hosts Loko (Pd) in one of the most intriguing matches of the 29th round in the efbet League. The match at the National Stadium "Vasil Levski" is at 16:30, and the referee will be Martin Velikov. "The Reds" enter the match from seventh place in the standings, still having theoretical chances for the top 4, while "The Smurfs" occupy 13th position and continue to fight for their survival, reports sportal.bg.
The hosts will seek a return to winning ways, after a week ago they surprisingly finished tied with the penultimate Botev Vratsa in the table (1:1). Just 3 days ago, the capital's team played their first semi-final clash with Cherno More for the Cup, but there were no goals in it.
Dušan Kosić's team suffered a defeat by Spartak (Varna) in the previous round and will be extremely motivated to "steal" at least a point from their opponent. "The Black and Whites" will certainly fall into the group with the teams fighting for salvation, but the goal for them is to avoid a play-off against the third or fourth place in the Second League.
The good news for Aleksandar Tomas is that Lumbard Delova, Stanislav Shopov and Matthias Faeton are returning after a suspension, but Jonathan Lindseth, who has accumulated five yellow cards, will now have to endure one. The injured Gustavo Busato, Zümur Butuchi and Aaron Iseka remain out.
The visiting coach will again be able to count on Kaloyan Kostov and Ivaylo Ivanov, who missed the match with the "falcons". However, Angel Lyaskov will not be able to take part in the match in the capital.
