Qarabağ, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 0-3 Europa League Qualifiers victory over Vestri.
For Qarabağ, the goalscorers were Bicalho (29') and Zakaria Sawo (56').
Fixtures with Qarabağ have tended to be exciting encounters lately with a lot of goalmouth action being a common characteristic. Over their past 6 games, a total of 21 goals have been recorded for both teams combined (at an average of 3.5 goals per game) with 16 of them belonging to Qarabağ.
CSKA Sofia come into this match following on from a 1-2 Europa League Qualifiers win vs Derry City in their previous outing.

The numbers tell their own story, and CSKA Sofia have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 7 goals in all. Defensively, CSKA Sofia have some weaknesses to address. Such a pattern might not be continued into this game, though.
When taking all factors into account, CSKA Sofia will manage to breach the defence of this Qarabağ team, but that may not quite be as many as the goals that they could concede.
We reckon that it will be a narrow 2-1 winning margin for Qarabağ when all is said and done.
Turning to the betting odds in the 90 minute result market, a win for Qarabağ can be had for 1.8, betting on the draw is 3.7 and selecting victory for CSKA Sofia will get you 3.7. They’re the top market prices available at present.
