Gabala

LWLLWW

Gabala head into the match following a 3-2 Premyer Liqasi win as they beat Imishli in their previous game.

The numbers tell their own story, and Gabala have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 7 goals overall. In defence, Gabala have not been doing too well. Putting that to one side, it remains to be seen if that pattern might be replicated here in this game or not.

👥 Head to head

Checking on their most recent head-to-head meetings stretching back to 14/04/2023 shows us that Neftçi have won 5 of these and Gabala 1, with the tally of draws standing at 0.

A total of 14 goals were produced between them in these games, with 11 for Neftçilər and 3 netted by Dağ canavarı. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.33.

The last league clash featuring these clubs was Premyer Liqasi match day 9 on 26/10/2025 when it ended Gabala 0-2 Neftçi.

⚡ Prediction

In our view, Neftçi will, in all likelihood, dominate possession and create several successful chances.

However, Gabala could well struggle to score a goal of their own although we do think it’s probable that they will be being dangerous at times, too.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a controlled 3-1 winning score for Neftçi at full-time.
