Head-to-Head Record
Bulgaria and Estonia have met three times on record, spanning from 2 April 2003 to 9 February 2011 – all 3 recorded meetings held in the available data. Bulgaria have won once, Estonia are yet to win, and two of the three have finished level, with the sides sharing 6 goals between them for an average of 2 goals per meeting. With only three fixtures on file, this remains a small sample rather than an extensive rivalry.

Bulgaria have kept one clean sheet and failed to score once across the six games.
