If you’re searching for a detailed Turkey vs Bulgaria prediction, you’re in the right place. With the World Cup Qualification Europe match set for November 15, 2025, at 17:00 GMT, football fans and punters alike are eager to see if Turkey can flex their muscles again or if Bulgaria can finally find their feet in Group E. Let’s break down the teams, recent form, and the best betting tips for this intriguing encounter.
On paper, this looks like a one-sided affair, and recent history certainly supports that. Turkey’s confidence is sky-high after thrashing Bulgaria 6-1 in Sofia just a few weeks ago. That match was a masterclass from the Crescent-Stars—Arda Guler dazzled with a goal and two assists, Kenan Yildiz bagged a brace, and even Zeki Celik and Irfan Can Kahveci joined the party. For Bulgaria, Radoslav Kirilov’s consolation goal was the only bright spot in a tough outing.
Here are the key facts to consider:
Bulgaria enters this match with Alexander Dimitrov at the helm after the departure of Ilian Iliev. Dimitrov, formerly the U21 boss, faces a baptism of fire after the team’s two 3-0 defeats to Spain and Georgia. Meanwhile, Turkey have had to deal with some off-field drama—a betting scandal and the Berke Özer situation—but their squad depth and discipline seem unlikely to be rattled. Baris Alper Yilmaz is serving the last match of his suspension, but with a squad valued at €393 million compared to Bulgaria’s €42.95 million, Turkey’s resources run deep.
Expect Turkey to stick with their high-pressing, attacking style. Arda Guler and Kenan Yildiz are the men to watch, ably supported by Hakan Calhanoglu’s creative spark. For Bulgaria, Vladimir Nikolov will lead the line, hoping to break his duck for the national team. Dimitrov’s main challenge will be shoring up a leaky defense—conceding twelve goals in three qualifiers is a stat no coach wants on their CV.
Let’s move on to the numbers and predictions that matter for your wallet. Turkey are overwhelming favorites, with odds of 1.11 for a home win, 9.3 for a draw, and a massive 20.0 for an away upset. The market value gap is as wide as the Bosphorus, and with Turkey unbeaten at home in qualifiers for years, it’s no surprise our AI gives a 10/10 trust score to a home win.
Let’s be honest—backing Bulgaria here is for the true romantics or those who enjoy long odds and heartbreak. Turkey’s recent 1-0 away win in Croatia as 5.5 underdogs shows they can grind out results against tough opposition, while Bulgaria’s 2-2 draw in Serbia (despite 15.76 win odds) proves they aren’t total pushovers. But with the group standings, squad value, and recent head to head history, all signs point to another comfortable night for Turkey.
Our Turkey vs Bulgaria prediction is clear: expect a dominant Turkish performance, plenty of goals, and a result that keeps them on course for World Cup qualification. For punters, the best value is in backing Turkey to win by two or more goals and over 2.5 total goals. If you’re feeling adventurous, a 4-0 correct score might just pay for your next kebab. Good luck, and may your bets be as safe as Turkey’s qualification hopes!
