OFC Haskovo will play without captain Teynur Marem against Sozopol on Saturday. Marem is suspended and misses the Round 15 game in the South-East Third League.

The match is on 14 November at 2.30pm in Balgarovo.

Beysim Beysim is a doubt, although he is already training with the squad. Atakan Yalmaz has an ankle problem, but he could still play.

Haskovo have not won in their last four games and have taken one point from them. "We are going through a bad spell, but we will do everything we can to get out of it," coach Zhelev said.

He does not expect an easy game. "There is no easy match for us, and the last game proved it," he said. Haskovo struggled in all the games they have won.

Zhelev says Sozopol are an awkward opponent. Games against them are tense, sometimes with incidents and more cards, and the coach hopes it will not be like that this time.

It will be hard, but the team will try, Zhelev said.
