Command Analysis

Qarabag FK

Current form

"Karabakh" remains the main favorite in the fight for the championship, although it occupies the second place in the standings. The team is only one point behind the leader "Araz", while having two matches in reserve. At the same time, the hosts have little success in the Europa League - only one win in six matches and 33rd place in the standings of 36 clubs. In the last match, the champion of Azerbaijan lost to the Swedish "Elfsborg" (0:1). In the championship, the wards of Gurban Gurbanov also recently lost points, having tied with "Sabah" (1:1) on the road.

Sumqayit

Current form

The visitors had a pretty successful last season, finishing fourth in the championship. The club got a chance to prove itself in European competitions, but were eliminated in the first qualifying round of the Conference League, having forced a fight on Hungarian Fehervar (1:2, 0:0). In the current Premier League, Sumgayit is only in sixth place and can hardly count on getting into the European Cup zone, which is already 12 points away. Nevertheless, the team remains in the fight for the Azerbaijan Cup, where it recently managed to beat modest MOIK (3:1, a.v.).

Tip and bets

Tiphandicap (+2) on Sumgayit

1.80

Sumgait regularly imposes competition on Karabakh in face-to-face matches. This year the teams have met three times and the favorite has never won with a large score. It cannot be said that the hosts are currently in optimal shape - this is proven by the defeat to Elfsborg and the loss of points in the match with Sabah. We believe that a crushing victory from the favorite is not to be expected here.

Our forecast is Asian handicap (+2) on Sumgait for 1.80

Will the prediction win?

Tiptotal under 3.5 goals

1.62

Bet on total

The last three head-to-head matches ended with a total under, and in general the hosts have been scoring little in recent matches, as have the guests. Most likely, we will not see more than three goals scored in this confrontation.

Our prediction is total under 3.5 goals at 1.62

Bet on corners

We believe that the opponents will rely on defense in this match, so it is unlikely that the total number of corners will be exceeded.

Our prediction is total under 10.5 corners for 1.67
