1,600 police will secure the area around the Vasil Levski national stadium in Sofia before, during and after the Bulgaria vs. Hungary European Qualifier match on 16 November.
The match will be played to empty stands, as it is regarded as a high-risk game. In the past ten days there has been utter chaos regarding the location for the holding of the match, which was transferred from Sofia to Plovdiv, Kurdzhali and then back to Sofia.
A protest by football fans is scheduled for 5 PM tomorrow.
