1.83Tip and bets
Zira have had four of their last five European Cup games with goals. This is the team's current style of play. The visitors also play in an open manner on the field with a clear focus on the opponent's goal and will not close in defense today. We recommend paying attention to the total over.
Betting Tip - total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.85

The difference in class between the Azerbaijani and Cypriot clubs is not too huge. The hosts have already played 10 official matches this season, losing only two of them. At the same time, the team from Baku plays on its home field and has only one defeat in the Conference League. We believe that the "eagles" have worked on their mistakes after the failure in Cyprus and are capable of getting at least a draw.

Betting on Team Goals
The teams intend to hit each other's gates. The hosts have exchanged goals with their opponents in four of the five home games they have played. The opponents have a good attack line and will have many chances to score in today's match.
