Serbia has the opportunity to close qualifications despite oscillations and two defeats against Hungary. If Bulgaria wins in the last round and Hungary loses to Montenegro, Serbia may finish in 1st place. However, this would be undeserved. Serbia’s victories against Montenegro resolved the issue of travelers to Germany. A friendly match against Belgium was lost, but card shuffling is expected. The strongest team is expected to secure the position.

Mladen Krstajic replaced Mladen Krstajic in the Bulgarian national team, aiming for a positive turn. They managed a draw against Hungary, the first-placed team in the group. Bulgaria has a slim chance of avoiding last place in the group, as Lithuania has three points more. Any victory will leave a bitter taste after these qualifications, and the 2026 World Championship qualifications must be considered in advance.

Lazovic and Sergej Milinkovic Savic are not included in the protocol for the match due to hamstring and knee injuries respectively. Mijat Gacinovic is on the list but unlikely to be available due to an unhealed injury. Srdjan Babic will miss the match due to illness.

The Bulgarian national team’s players, including Despodov and Gruev, are currently valued at around EUR 4.5 million, with a total value of around EUR 37 million.
