Botev Plovdiv was defeated for the first time this season in a championship game against Lyubimets at the home stadium in Plovdiv. The Canaries surprised their fans with the 1-2 loss from their visitor, who participate for the first time in "A" group.

The Yellow-Blacks seemed tired after the visit to Stuttgart, but still created a dozen of great goalscoring opportunities. The luck turned the back to the strikers and they could find the back of the net until the end of the game. Again, Nedelev was precise with a shot from 15 meters, but he only managed to make the result 1-2, after two goals from Lyubimets' players before that. Botev is now fourth in the standings with 7 points from 4 games, just 3 points behind the leaders.
