CSKA 1948 can take all three points
13th-placed PFC Spartak Varna should have enough in their locker to avoid relegation from the Parva liga in 2025-2026, but they have been stuck on 23 points after 25 games and unable to climb the table.
The Varna-based team’s home record in the league has been a big part of their disappointing season to date, with Gjokica Hadzievski’s men winning three, drawing four and losing five of their 12 games in front of their own fans.

Structured hosts can be broken down by CSKA 1948
This should be an interesting tactical duel between two Parva liga clubs with very different philosophies, with CSKA 1948 playing at a higher tempo than their hosts, pressing the opposition aggressively and looking to play the ball wide and in behind.
Atanas Bornosuzov’s team are the third-placed side in the division with 47 points from 25 games, which indicates a strong level of consistency all season, but his tactical tweaks in the past couple of months have seen the team really pick up their away form.
The PFC Spartak Varna vs FC CSKA 1948 preview shows that CSKA 1948 enter this game on the back of a dominant 5-0 away win over Lokomotiv Plovdiv and a 0-0 draw at home to Botev Plovdiv, and they have won their last 2 away games without conceding.

Hadzievski, who took over in July 2025, has been looking to instill structure and a strong defensive base into his young team. In doing so, he’s integrated youth into the first team and will line them up in a compact 4-2-3-1 formation, or a narrow 4-3-3 at times, and look to be solid in defense before hitting teams on the break.
Jota Lopes has been their most consistent attacking outlet in recent weeks, having scored two of their last four goals in recent matches, but CSKA 1948 will have the firepower to get the win. This PFC Spartak Varna vs FC CSKA 1948 prediction also highlights Mamadou Diallo, who is in form with two goals in his last five games and can be the difference here.
