Willy Sagnol's Georgia must absolutely revive. Beaten by Turkey (2-3) on Thursday, on a double from Kerem Akturkoglu, the Caucasus selection is fortunate to play a new home game in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, this Sunday afternoon (3 p.m. in France) against Bulgaria. Bulgarians who took 3-0 against Spain three days ago.
The Georgians are obviously led by PSG winger KHVICHA KVAratskhelia, the native striker of Lyon Georges Mikautadze or the Stéphanois feu-follet Zuriko Davitashvili. They are widely favorite on this second match scheduled in Tbilisi, at Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena (54,139 places).
The victory is all the more compulsory since, to qualify for the World Cup 26 in North America, only the first place will give a direct ticket. The second in this pool E will compete in the European dams in March 2026 and the Turks led by Arda Güler even seem to have arms to create a huge surprise by competing with La Roja.
