Georgia to maintain perfect start
Georgia have been unstoppable since the start of the UEFA Nations League; they've won three from three, scoring four goals per game on average. It's fair to point out that Georgia have no losses in their last eight games; they won seven of those games, with one draw. In contrast, Bulgaria have struggled to win games recently; they are without a win in their last seven games, with three draws and four losses. Additionally, these teams met last week, and Georgia won by a 5:2 score line; for this reason, we believe that Georgia will maintain their perfect record in this tournament with yet another win.
Both sides will score
We've mentioned that these teams played out a seven-goal thriller last week; it's also worth noting that clashes between these teams usually feature lots of goals. As a matter of fact, the last three meetings between Georgia and Bulgaria saw at least five goals scored, with two of those encounters seeing seven or more goals scored. Also, Georgia have not had too much trouble finding the net; as they averaged four goals per game in this tournament. Considering both teams scored in all of Bulgaria's last five games, we should expect goals at both ends.

Can Georgia continue their pursuit for perfection?
These two nations couldn't be showing more different form if they tried. Georgia are chalking up win after win. Bulgaria meanwhile cannot find a way to bag a win. On form, this makes it a home banker but football isn't that simple.
Georgia have been on fire recently; they are coming off three consecutive wins, and are unbeaten in their last eight games, with seven wins and a draw. As it stands, Georgia are Group 4 leaders, with nine points from a possible nine; they'll look to extend their winning streak to four games as Bulgaria come visiting.
Georgia Predicted lineup – Loria, Kirkvelia, Kashia, Kocholava, Kakabadze, Kvekveskiri, Aburjania, Azarovi, Davitashvili, Zivzivadze
Bulgaria's Nations League campaign has gotten off to a rocky start; they have no wins in three group games so far, with two draws and a loss. As a matter of fact, Bulgaria are without a win in their last seven games in all competitions; they'll hope to snap their winless streak by beating an in-form Georgia side.
Bulgaria Predicted lineup – Mihaylov, Turitsov, Hristov, Nedyalkov, Jordanov, Chochev, Milanov, Minchev, Nedelev, Despodov, Iliev
