Northern Ireland face Bulgaria this evening looking to kick-start their World Cup qualifying campaign under manager Ian Baraclough.
The hosts opened Group C with a 2-0 loss to Italy last week, before they were defeated 2-1 in a friendly match against the United States of America on Sunday.
Baraclough is without a win in 90 minutes as Northern Ireland boss since taking charge of the team, a run which now stretches to 10 games, while captain Steven Davis is set to earn a record-breaking 126th cap for the national side.
Bulgaria will also be looking for their first points of the campaign after they fell to losses in each of their opening two games. The visitors were defeated by Switzerland in their game on Thursday before they also beaten 2-0 by the Italians.
