- Merw is in the worst form (0-3-3)
- Şagadam have the fewest scored goals (9) in Ýokary Liga

Merw form and stats
Merw have collected 4 points from their Ýokary Liga home games so far after 1-1-2.

In the game before, a fine away win at Khujand (after extra-time). A AFC Cup match.
On the other hand, Merw have conceded 5 goals.
Şagadam form and stats
There's been little loot from Şagadam's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 6 away games in the Ýokary Liga. Şagadam only have 0 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.
