Kick-off on September 4, 2025, at 21:45.

In the first round of Group E in the European World Cup qualifiers, the National Stadium Vasil Levski in Sofia will host the match Bulgaria — Spain. The teams have never faced each other in qualifying cycles. In the group stage of Euro 1996, the teams drew in Leeds, 1-1. Two years later, in the same stage of the World Cup, the Spanish side, La Roja, thrashed the Bulgarian team in Lens, with Real Madrid legend Fernando Hierro involved in three goal-scoring actions, 6-1. In 2002, the Spanish squad defeated the Bulgarian team 1-0 in a friendly, and the teams have not met since.

MEGOGO will broadcast Bulgaria — Spain online on September 4, 2025. The host team won only against Luxembourg in the last eight matches in UEFA Nations League Division C, 1-0. At home, the team defeated Northern Ireland last September in the same tournament, 1-0. In the last seven home games, Bulgaria suffered a single defeat to Ireland in the Nations League playoff for a spot in Division B, 1-2. During this period, Ilian Iliev’s squad failed to score only against Luxembourg, 0-0.

Spain lost an official match for the first time since March 2023 in June, falling to Portugal in the Nations League final (2-2, 3-5 on penalties). In the previous five games, La Roja conceded thirteen goals and scored sixteen. Gavi will not be available for the national team due to injury. Luis de la Fuente called up twenty-five players, including five from Barcelona, three each from Athletic Bilbao and Arsenal, and two each from Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, and Como.
