Cherno More 1919 Burgas beat Spartak Pleven 3-0 in the Second League Regular Season round 9 on 13 September 2026. The hosts took all three points at home, extending their unbeaten run while the visitors fell further behind. It was a straightforward result, but the manner of victory told its own story.
R. Kostenski opened the scoring in the twenty-eighth minute, and here's the thing — that early goal shifted the balance before the visitors could settle. By then, Cherno More had already established their rhythm, pressing high and winning second balls. The visitors' first substitution came just after the break, D. Stoyanov replaced someone, but it was too little, too late.
G. Staykov doubled the lead in the sixty-second minute, a clinical finish that ended a barren spell for the home attack. K. Dobrev added a third seven minutes later, and the visitors were left flat-footed. Two yellow cards — J. Darame and P. Spasov — told you the tension was building, even if the scoreline suggested otherwise.
We had called for a home win at 49% confidence, and the result confirmed it. Not because the prediction was brilliant, but because Cherno More's home form speaks for itself. Four wins, three draws, two losses in nine games — they know how to grind results out.
The statistics back up what you saw. Cherno More recorded 84 attacks against 57, with eight shots on target to one. Possession sat at 0.6 for the hosts, 0.4 for the visitors. Many shots with three goals means they didn't waste their chances — and here's the thing, that's the difference between a comfortable win and a lucky one.
Cherno More sit fifth with 15 points after nine games, while Spartak Pleven remain fifteenth on 10 points. The gap between them is now five points, and the visitors have five losses already. One mistake ends it — and they made several today.
