Qarabağ form and stats

Qarabağ have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the Premier League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.

Qarabağ are returning here after visiting Olimpija in a Europa League match and winning with a 2-0 scoreline.

Ahead of that match, Qarabağ won a home game hosting Araz (2-1).

Qarabağ are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave Azərsun Arena with a victory. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. In their match history 14 earlier games are comparable to this one, and Qarabağ has won 14 times, drawn 0 and lost 0. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Qarabağ has won by at least two goals 14 times when in this position.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Qarabağ as they have a new game in only four days, a Europa League match thankfully also at home. Olimpija are visiting.

The Qarabağ fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 5 goals in 3 league matches. Qarabağ have only conceded 2 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Kapaz form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Premier League ended in defeat. Last season Kapaz had these away match statistics: Played 18; won 1, drew 8 and lost 9.

Kapaz have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 226 minutes ago. Kvirkvia was the goal scorer.

Home advantage was not enough for Kapaz in their previous game as they lost hosting Turan, 0-2.

Prior to that match, the Kapaz manager Mämmädov faced defeat when travelling to Zira and losing 0-1.

The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played 29 away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with 5 wins, 8 draws and 16 defeats. 8 games were lost by at least two goals margin.

Kapaz have the goal stats of 0-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Qarabağ have put together a sequence of 23 consecutive games without defeat (19-4-0) when facing Kapaz.
