After three trips to the North, we’re headed eastward this time around. Our next European match away will take place in Bulgaria: at 9:30 a.m., a plane will take us from the Maribor airport to Varna, where a bus will be waiting to take us to Razgrad.

The list of passengers contains 22 players: Pirić, Handanović, Cotman, Ivković, Peričić, Koblar, Viler, Milec, Klinar, Vrhovec, Cretu, Ogrinec, Pihler, Hotić, Kramarič, Požeg Vancaš, Kotnik, Kronaveter, Tavares, Zahović, Mešanović, and Mulahusejnović.

Pihler has recovered; Rajčević, however, will be staying home due to an injury, as will Kolmanič, Žugelj, Santos, Uskoković, Dervišević, and Bajde.

Our team will hold its first training session at the venue on Wednesday at 8 p.m. local time (7 p.m. our time) and will hold a press conference half an hour before to present the latest news from the violet-clad camp.
