Bulgaria vs. Switzerland Tips & Quotas, 25.03.2021 – 18:00 – World Cup Qualification Europe
On Thursday evening, 25.03.2021 at 6 p.m., the World Cup qualification for the Swiss national team begins with the international match in Bulgaria at Vasil-Levski Stadium in Sofia. The lions are still in crisis mode and also relegated to League C last year in the Nations League. The Swiss were able to avoid relegation in the Netherlands and remain in League A. In qualifying group C for the 2022 World Cup final round in Qatar, Italy, Lithuania and Northern Ireland are also available as opponents in addition to Bulgaria and Switzerland.

The national team of Yasen Petrov (new in office since January 2021) played a weak NL season last year and even relegated as group last. The only two points in the competition were against Ireland. Against Wales (2 times 0:1) and Finland (0:2, 1:2), the lions lost four times and will play in the C-League in the future. The only victory in 2020 was in a test kick against football dwarf Gibraltar (3-0).
THE EURO 2021 will take place without Bulgaria, but the lions have been well in the race for a long time. By qualifying for the European Championships, the playoff games were reached as the last straw on one of the last European Championships tickets. However, Hungary lost the semi-finals 1:3 and thus missed the fourth European Championship in a row. However, the last European Championship in Portugal (2004) was also forgotten (three bankruptcies including a logical preliminary round).
The final rounds of the World Cup are even worse for the Bulgarians. The last five tournaments have been missed and are now hoping to be back in Qatar next year after a long time. Most recently, the lions played a World Cup in France in 1998 and had to return home after the three group games.
The Bulgarian national team no longer has stars like Letchkov or Stoitschkov. Among the better footballers are Valentin Antov (FC Bologna), Strahil Popov (Hatayspor) and Kiril Despodov (Ludogorets), who are not to be settled above in the international comparison.

The national team of Vladimir Petkovic also did not play a good nation league season and could only win the last group game at home against Ukraine at the green table. Due to the “victory“, the Confederates left the last place and Ukraine declined. Due to many corona infections, the international match was not played by the opponent and was scored 3-0 for the nation. The first leg in Ukraine (1:2) and the guest game in Spain (0:1) were the only defeats during the group stage. There were two draws against Germany (1:1 for the DFB-Elf and 3:3 at home).
The next major event after the World Cup 2018 in Russia is due in a few months. For Switzerland, the European Championship in Group A is against Italy, Wales and Turkey. The 2016 European Championship in France was a disappointment despite having survived the preliminary round with only one victory (1-0 against Albania). There were two counters against Romania (0:0) and the host (1:1). In the quarter-finals, Switzerland flew out against Poland after penalties.
Switzerland has never missed a world championship, but it has never made it further than the quarter-finals. However, the entry into the lap of the last eight teams has also been forever ago – in 1954 in their own country. About three years ago the final round was over again after the final of the eighteen (Sweden 0:1). During the group phase, the Confederates remained unbeaten and even knocked off a point in Brazil.
A total of 11 Bundesliga regionals are on offer for the international matches in March. Most of them are provided by Borussia Mönchengladbach with Breel Embolo, Denis Zakaria, Nico Elvedi and Yann Sommer. Even the now kicking top players Xherdan Shaqiri (FC Liverpool) and Granti Xhaka (Arsenal London) played in the German league.

Switzerland is a clear favourite for the first World Cup qualifying game in Bulgaria. However, the nation is also not in top form and was unable to win the last competitive games in the Nations League last year. Only by winning the green table against Ukraine did the Confederates avoid relegation. In the World Cup qualification, however, Switzerland can be relied on. You’ve never missed a final round. The lions also did not play a successful year 2020 and remained in the NL without threesomes. The Petrov elf has meanwhile shrunk into a football dwarf and has not been involved in any major tournament for ages. If Switzerland reaches normal daily form in Sofia, they will score the first three points on their way to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. So little wonder our first choice for this tip forecast also wins on the 3-way betting Switzerland, where betting odds on average wave around 1.45+.
