This is a continental cup match, the UEFA Nations League, where Bulgaria host Estonia at home. Both teams have just played their first match of this competition in the same way, still without a win. The hosts lost at home 1-2, while the visitors drew 1-1, each taking one point from their opening fixture. This game is therefore one where both sides want three points so as not to fall behind from the start of the campaign. Bulgaria return to play at home after their most recent defeat, and before that they had just thrashed their opponent 10-2 in the World FIFA Series back in March. Estonia, meanwhile, are unbeaten in 3 straight matches, with their latest in this competition a 1-1 draw, and before that a win in the Baltic Cup and a friendly, each 1-0. The visitors' defence looks unlikely to concede easily, but they also do not score much. If the hosts get the first goal from an attack pushing up the wings, the game should open up into more of an exchange, because Estonia will have to come out of their shell to equalise. The first half may still be tense and end with a low score, but in the second half there is a chance both teams will attack harder, especially late on when Bulgaria often concede and Estonia often score.
