This Cherno More Varna vs Septemvri Sofia prediction analyzes the 1st League match set for Oct 27 at 15:00. Based on head-to-head dominance, stronger league standing, and home advantage, Cherno More Varna enters as the clear favorite with a 67% win probability, compared to 14% for Septemvri Sofia.

Team Form

Cherno More Varna's recent outings have been inconsistent, with 2 wins and 3 losses in their last 5 matches across all competitions. The sequence reads L, W, L, L, W. A heavy 5-0 friendly defeat to Ludogorets Razgrad on Oct 4 and a 2-0 home league loss to Levski Sofia on Oct 11 highlight defensive vulnerabilities. However, a 3-0 cup win at Marek Dupnica on Oct 17 provided a morale boost ahead of this fixture.

Septemvri Sofia's form is significantly worse, recording 1 draw and 4 losses in their last 5 matches (D, L, L, L, L). The team has struggled defensively, conceding 12 goals in this span. A 3-2 home defeat to Dunav Ruse on Oct 11 and a 3-0 loss to Botev Plovdiv on Sep 19 underline their difficulties. A 1-1 cup draw at Lokomotiv Gorna Oryahovitsa on Oct 17 is the only recent match they avoided defeat.

Head-to-Head Record

History strongly favors Cherno More Varna. In 19 meetings, the home side has 9 wins, Septemvri Sofia has 7, and 3 matches ended in a draw. Recent clashes further illustrate the gap: Cherno More won 3-0 away in March 2026 and 2-1 away in November 2024. The most recent match in Varna was a 1-1 draw in September 2025.

League Table Positions

Neither club is explicitly listed in the provided league table, meaning both sit outside the top 12 in the current 1st League standings. The table is topped by Levski Sofia with 28 points from 10 games. However, Cherno More Varna’s historical stature in the Bulgarian top flight indicates a competitive gap over a Septemvri Sofia side that appears to be in the relegation zone based on their results against listed teams like Dunav Ruse and Botev Plovdiv.

Win Probability: Cherno More Varna or Septemvri Sofia?
