Bulgaria vs Northern Ireland Betting Tips and Predictions | Football Park

It’s still the International Break and here at Football Park we have a tip for this Sunday’s UEFA Nations League match between Bulgaria and Northern Ireland.

Bulgaria

Bulgaria are not necessarily a team that you would think are in good form, but they have been holding their own in recent friendlies and that has carried on through into the UEFA Nations League as well. In Bulgaria’s last five matches, they are unbeaten in seven games, a mix of friendlies and qualification matches. In that time, they have faced the likes of Hungary, Serbia, Azerbaijan, Romania and Slovenia. These are not teams that you would expect to lose to Bulgaria either, so they have done an excellent job in earning those draws.

Some of those games might have been goalless draws but defensively and The Lions have been immaculate. Only conceding two goals in five games is a great achievement and something that will help them going into this match versus an inform Northern Ireland team.

Bulgaria vs Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland

A total of four wins and four clean sheets from Northern Ireland’s last six games is something to be proud of. The only defeat that they have suffered recently was against Euro 2024 champions Spain back in June. Thursday night had Northern Ireland making it back to back 2-0 wins, this time beating Luxembourg in the first game Group 3 of the UEFA Nations League C.

That wins was due to the first half efforts of former Middlesborough player Paddy McNair and Sunderland’s Daniel Ballard. Both goals coming the centre back partnership in that game but that will have to change with the attacking promise coming through Northern Ireland at the moment. Dion Charles had to come off early so it will be a decision on how will come in to replace him for manager Martin O’Neill Liverpool’s Conor Bradley always seems to impress when he plays and he will be someone that can be relied on in both the defensive and attacking ends of the pitch.

What’s the tip?

Our betting experts have gone with Northern Ireland To Win + Under 2.5 Goals. This match has low scoring written all over it with Bulgaria achieving no more than one goal in their last five matches. Northern Ireland are favourites for this match for a reason and we believe that they’ll see this match through and pick up the three points.
