Indonesia vs Bulgaria prediction
Coached by former Canada boss John Herdman, Indonesia eased themselves into the final with a comfortable and convincing 4-0 demolition of CONCACAF side Saint Kitts and Nevis the other day.
Bulgaria struggled badly in 2025 but they managed to get off to an easy winning start to this year as they demolished one of the minnows of international football, the Solomon Islands, by ten goals to two.
This is an intriguing one to begin to measure how far Indonesia football may have come and how far Bulgarian football may have fallen. Regardless of the end match result, both teams scoring would appear to be a good bet for this one.
