The visiting Pakhtakor side should be favourites in this visit to Buxoro, as the away team holds a 28 point advantage from their 14 league games this season.

The visiting Pakhtakor played their last game only four days ago, a Professional Football League match. That game was also an away game, at Navbahor. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Pakhtakor form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (41) in Professional Football League, on their Professional Football League travels is 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. Things are running smoothly for Pakhtakor who hasn't tasted defeat in their last ten matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Sogdiana.

Pakhtakor has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Navbahor for a Professional Football League game that ended a draw (1-1). Ahead of that match was the victory versus Andijan at their stadium, the result 2-0.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Pakhtakor manager S. Arveladze as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Metalourg.

Pakhtakor has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 8 goals from 5 games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (3 so far).
