Bulgaria vs Georgia Prediction and Betting Tips | November 18th 2025

Bulgaria and Georgia bring their campaign in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying to an end when they square off in the final Group E game on Tuesday. Willy Sagnol’s men cruised to a 3-0 victory in September’s reverse fixture and will journey to the Vasil Levski National Stadium looking to do the double over the home nation.

Bulgaria were left empty-handed once again in the World Cup qualifiers as they fell to a 2-0 defeat against Turkiye when the two sides met at the Bursa Ataturk Stadium on Saturday.

With that result, Aleksandar Dimitrov’s side are one of just five teams without any points in the qualifiers, having lost each of the five games to sit rock-bottom in Group E.

Bulgaria have struggled to get going at both ends of the pitch, conceding a staggering 18 goals in the five matches while finding the back of the net just once so far.

Georgia, meanwhile, were on the receiving end of a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Spain when the two nations squared off at the Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena last weekend.

Sagnol’s men have lost all but one of their five qualifying matches, with a 3-0 victory over Bulgaria in September’s reverse fixture being the exception.

Georgia, who are currently 70th in the latest FIFA World Rankings, sit third in Group E with three points from a possible 15, nine points behind second-placed Turkiye.

Bulgaria vs Georgia Head-To-Head and Key Numbers

• With four wins from the last nine meetings between the sides, Bulgaria boast a slightly superior record in the history of this fixture.
• Georgia have picked up one fewer win in that time, while the spoils have been shared on two occasions.
• Bulgaria have failed to taste victory in their last 10 games across all competitions, losing eight and claiming two draws since a 1-0 win over Luxembourg in November 2024.
• Georgia have lost four of their last five away matches, with a 3-0 victory over Armenia in the UEFA Nations League playoffs back in March being the exception.

Bulgaria vs Georgia Prediction

While it has been a truly forgettable run for Bulgaria, they will be looking to end the campaign on a high and secure their first win in over a year.

However, Georgia boast the firepower needed to get the job done and we are backing them to come out on top at the Vasil Levski National Stadium.
