Last season their Champions League adventure ended in the 1st qualifying round against Shkupi.

The Lincoln Red Imps manager Pérez and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Magpies in the Gibraltar Cup.

Qarabağ form and stats

Qarabağ was sent out of Champions League in the play-offs last season, when Viktoria Plzen turned out to be too strong.

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Qarabağ so far, with 15-2-1 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Premier League statistics.

Qarabağ had fun at their own home (Victoria Stadium) last time out, beating Turan 3-1. Andrade, Xhixha and Gurbanli scored.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Sumqayt.

Qarabağ create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 47 goals in 18 travels. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far).
