Qarabağ form and stats

Qarabağ was eliminated in the play-offs last season in the Champions League. Viktoria Plzen was too strong.

Qarabağ have performed here at Bakı Olimpiya Stadionu this season with 13 wins from 18 Premier League matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 4 games and lost 1.

Qarabağ are returning here after guesting Lincoln Red Imps in a Champions League match and winning with a 2-1 scoreline.

Previous to that game, a Premier League home match hosting Turan in a game that was won 3-1.

It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Qarabağ have performed as huge favourites like they are today: 13 games found in the database showing 13 Qarabağ wins, 0 draws and 0 defeats.

The Qarabağ manager Qurbanov has got the team scoring with 44 from 18 home games in the league. Qarabağ have only conceded 16 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Lincoln Red Imps form and stats

Lincoln was sent out of Champions League in the 1st qualifying round last season, when Shkupi turned out to be too strong.

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, a Champions League home loss versus Qarabağ with 1-2 on the scoreboard.

Preceding that, 1-1 away against Magpies (after extra-time, 4-2 on penalties) in the Gibraltar Cup. The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played 15 away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. 3 games were lost by at least two goals margin.

Head 2 Head

The fixture history shows this score when the participants met earlier this season; Lincoln Red Imps - Qarabağ 1-2.
