Team Analysis
Qarabag will host FK Shkendija 79 in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round, holding a crucial 1-0 advantage from the away leg. As the dominant force in the Azerbaijani league, Qarabag is formidable at home, boasting a mature tactical system with a balanced attack and defense. FK Shkendija 79, on the other hand, showed resilience in the previous qualifying round. Despite the first-leg loss, they won't give up easily. Their quick counter-attacks, particularly down the flanks, pose a threat. However, they may struggle to cope with Qarabag's powerful midfield control.
Player Situation
Qarabag's attacking lynchpin, forward Akhundzade, was excellent in the first leg. His movement and finishing ability are vital for breaking down the opposition's defense. The return of key midfielder Jankovic adds significant organization to the team. The defense has seen some rotation but remains solid overall. For Shkendija 79, their main goalscorer, Tamba, is the key to any potential comeback. Midfield maestro Ibrahimi also needs to be on top form to create scoring opportunities for the team.
Nowgoal Prediction
With the first-leg victory, Qarabag has a psychological advantage. Back on home soil, they will continue to dominate possession and apply high pressure. Shkendija 79 must push forward to turn the tie around, which will likely open up space for Qarabag's counter-attacks. While Shkendija 79 will fight hard, Qarabag's solid defense and efficient attack are expected to secure them another victory. This will likely be a close match, but Qarabag's home advantage will see them through.
Prediction: Home team win (2-0)
