Sabah vs Neftçi Live Stream, Predictions

📊 Form Guide

Sabah

WDWDDW 📈

Sabah are hoping to win again following the 0-6 Premyer Liqasi triumph vs Sumgayit.

For Sabah, the scorers were Emmanuel Apeh (3'), Joy-Lance Mickels (14'), Oleksiy Kashchuk (28'), Elvin Camalov (33'), Anatoli Nuriyev (77') and Davit Volkovi (85').

Their more recent scorelines show that not much more can be done by the Sabah defence. Sabah have been miserly, seeing the tally of goals that have gone in at their end during their previous six outings standing at 3. Nevertheless, we will just have to wait and see if such a trend will be sustained in this game or not.
