Qarabağ
WWDWWW 📈
Qarabağ will be looking for a repeat result of the 1-4 Premyer Liqasi triumph over Səbail.
For Qarabağ, goals were scored by Riçard Almeyda (17') and Leandro Andrade (19', 53', 65').
Their latest results really do illustrate the point that not much more can be done by the Qarabağ defence. Qarabağ have been miserly, seeing the total number of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their previous 6 outings standing at 3.
Neftçi
LDWDWL ⚖
Since being beaten in their last game against Zira in Premyer Liqasi competition, Neftçi will be aiming to make amends here.
For Neftçi, goals were scored by Filip Ozobić (9') and Edvin Kuč (24'). Raphael Alemão (43', 75'), Davit Volkovi (61') and Anatoli Nuriyev (77') scored for Zira.
The numbers tell their own story, and Neftçi have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 8 goals in total. At the back, Neftçi have been far from perfect. In any event, it remains to be seen if that pattern will persist in this game.
Looking at their past form shows that Neftçi:
- have not registered a win against Qarabağ in games played away from home for the previous 7 league games. Not good at all.
- have not been beaten in their last 2 away league matches.

Prediction
In this game, Qarabağ will more than likely score at least once when they come up against Neftçi, who might well find it a difficult task getting goals.
Accordingly, we see a fairly comfortable 2-0 winning margin for Qarabağ at the conclusion of the game.
