Səbail vs Neftçi Live Stream, Predictions

📊 Form Guide

Səbail

LLDWDL

Səbail won’t want a repeat of their last result here after the 1-2 Premyer Liqasi loss in their previous game against Zira.

The only name on the scoresheet from Səbail was Aghabala Ramazanov (13', 65'). Dimitrios Chantakias (5') and Sərtan Taşqın (33') scored for Zira.

It’s not been often in recent times that Səbail haven’t conceded. It will be a concern for them that Səbail have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 games, giving up 8 goals during that time.

Neftçi

LWLWWW 📈

Neftçi will come into the clash following on from a 1-2 Premyer Liqasi win vs Gabala in their previous game.

In as many as 5 out of the previous 6 games involving Neftçi, a minimum of three goals have gone in. The overall average goals scored per game within that time is 3.5, with the average number of goals for Neftçi standing at 2.17. We will see whether or not that trend can be continued on in this game.

↔️ Head to head

Checking on their past head to head meetings going back to 14/03/2021 shows that these fixtures have ended in disappointment for Səbail. They’ve not been able to come away with any victories at all whereas Neftçi have just been too good for them, winning in 100% of those ties.

A total of 16 goals were yielded between them in this period, with 1 of them for Aslanlar and 15 being from Neftçilər. The average goals per game has been 2.67.

The previous league game featuring these clubs was Premyer Liqasi match day 24 on 24/04/2022 when the final score was Səbail 0-1 Neftçi.

📰 Team News: Səbail

The Səbail boss Aftandil Hacıyev will be thankful to have no fitness worries whatsoever ahead of this game owing to a completely injury-free group available to select from.

📰 Team News: Neftçi

Thanks to a mainly healthy squad, there’s just the sole fitness issue for the Neftçi boss Samir Abbasov to contend with. Azar Salahly (Collarbone fracture) won’t be in action.

💭 Prediction

When taking everything into account, Səbail will really need to work well to breach the defence of this Neftçi outfit who we think should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a narrow 0-1 advantage for Neftçi at the end of the 90 minutes.

Let’s see how this one goes.
