Slovenia and Bulgaria will play a friendly game in Ljubljana on Saturday, June 8, starting at 15:00 Central European Time. The analysts at Dailysports have developed the forecast and betting advice for this game.
Slovenia
For the first time since 2000, the Slovenian national team is in the European Championship final stages, and they are assiduously preparing for these important games. Slovenia will play in a group alongside Denmark, Serbia, and England at Euro 2024. Their last preparation phase ends with the match versus Bulgaria.
In a friendly encounter on June 4, Slovenia defeated Armenia 2-1 despite the absence of their standout player, Benjamin Šeško. It’s interesting to note that the 36-year-old Josip Iličić, a great player for Maribor in his native country, scored the winning goal.
Slovenia came in second in the Euro qualification campaign, falling short behind Denmark solely due to goal differential.

Bulgaria
The Bulgarian national team is enduring extremely difficult circumstances. Bulgaria has not made it to the World Cup or the European Championships since 2008. This was also the case in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, as Bulgaria came in last among Hungary, Serbia, Montenegro, and Lithuania in a group.
But Bulgaria has a five-match winning streak going into their encounter versus Slovenia. They had previously drawn 1-1 with Azerbaijan and won 1-0 against Tanzania, although they had shockingly drawn 0-0 in a friendly match against Romania on June 4.
It is important to note that Bulgaria has only won twice since November 2022. They had a record of four loses and four draws in the Euro 2024 qualifying.
Prediction for Slovenia vs. Bulgaria
Both teams play defense, and Bulgaria played a very strong defense against Romania. I’ll wager less than 2.5 goals.
