Kapaz is still under threat of relegation from the Azerbaijan Premier League, as it occupies the penultimate place in the ranking and is only one point ahead of Sabail, who are at the bottom of the standings.

Sumqayit
AzerbaijanCurrent form
Sumgait finished last season in fourth place and had the opportunity to prove themselves in European competitions, but they 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, Sumgait is only in sixth place and can hardly count on getting into the European Cup zone, which is already 14 points away. Nevertheless, the team remains in the fight for the Azerbaijan Cup, where they recently managed to beat modest MOIK (3:1, a.v.). In the last round of the championship, the visitors suffered a big defeat to the current champion, Karabakh (0:5).

1.78Bet Number 1 in the final score

1.60Tip and bets
The hosts are having an extremely unsuccessful season and often lose even on their home field. In the first eight rounds, the club from Tovuz did not score a single point, and the situation has not improved much now. The visitors look preferable and rarely lose to outsiders. We believe that this will not happen today either.
Our forecast is Asian handicap (0) on Sumgait for 1.70
Bet on total
The hosts need points to break away from the last place, so the team will fight only for victory and it can be assumed that the attack will play a decisive role in this match. The guests have good performers in the attacking line, so they will definitely have something to answer with. Most likely, this confrontation will be productive.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.95
Bet on corners
We believe that the opponents will bet on attack in this match, so the total number of corners will most likely be exceeded.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners for 1.70
