Today at 16:45 according to the schedule, CSKA 1948 is to host Levski in a match from the 22nd round of the elite. However, the match is likely to be postponed, writes "Tema Sport".
Yesterday, the stadium in the mountain village of Bistritsa was covered with thick snow, the wind was blowing, and the temperatures were below zero degrees, which makes holding the match difficult.
Nevertheless, the Blues expressed their desire for the match to be played according to the schedule. However, the club is adamant that this decision cannot be made alone, but is within the powers of the referee and match officials.
Otherwise, the Blues would not be able to rely on Venezuelan Cristian Macun, who is still recovering from an injury. On Friday, the club from “Gerena“ completed the deal to sign Croatian defender Stipe Vulikic from Sampdoria, but it is unlikely that he will fit into Julio Velasquez's plans so quickly.
In CSKA 1948's squad with a long-term injury is Bernardo Couto, who was signed from Spartak Varna in the winter. He only played a few minutes for his new team before suffering a serious injury at “Ogosta“ stadium. National team player Georgi Rusev will also be out for a few weeks, as he has torn ligaments.
Before the match, Levski had a ten-point lead over the Reds from Bistritsa. The hosts started hesitantly after the winter break, which led to the parting of ways with coach Ivan Stoyanov. He was replaced by Alexander Alexandrov – Alvesa.
