Qarabağ are hoping to win again following a 2-0 Premyer Liqasi success over Imishli.

The only name on the scoresheet from Qarabağ was Emmanuel Addai (82').

Their more recent scorelines highlight the fact that huge efforts have been put in by the Qarabağ backline. Qarabağ have kept it tight, resulting in the tally of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their previous 6 matches standing at 4.

Opposing teams have managed 7 of those goals. Nonetheless, we’ll just have to find out whether that trend shall be maintained in this match or not.

ℹ️ Team News: Qarabağ

We think that Atlılar should opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game featuring Mateusz Kochalski, Matheus Silva, Bahlul Mustafazade, Kevin Medina, Elvin Jafarquliyev, Pedro Bicalho, Marko Jankovic, Leandro Andrade, Kady Malinowski, Abdellah Zoubir and Camilo Duran.

📋 Team News: Chelsea

With a fully healthy squad to choose from, the Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca does not have any fitness worries to speak of ahead of this match.

It’s our belief that The Blues could decide to utilise a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting the game with Filip Joergensen, Malo Gusto, Josh Acheampong, Tosin Adarabioyo, Jorrel Hato, Andrey Santos, Romeo Lavia, Estevao, Facundo Buonanotte, Jamie Gittens and Liam Delap.

🔮 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Qarabağ are dangerous enough to score against this Chelsea side, but a single goal probably won’t quite be enough.

Our selection here is for both teams to score in a 1-2 advantage for Chelsea when the referee blows the final whistle. There looks to be little in this one.
