I hope to show good results in both rapid and blitz at the "Champions War" tournament.

Idman.biz reports that Azerbaijani chess player Gunay Mammadzada said this in her statement to "Report" while talking about the meeting with world and European champion Antoaneta Stefanova (Bulgaria), whom she will face in the "Champions War" tournament to be held in Baku.

The Azerbaijani champion stated that she had faced her opponent before: "The format of the tournament is interesting for me. For the first time, I will play rapid and blitz matches specifically against someone. Azerbaijani champions will play against world champions. I hope it will be interesting for the audience as well. I have played against Antoaneta Stefanova before. I think I am ahead in the score in the classical type. I'm not sure about the rapid type. Antoaneta is a good opponent. Unexpected results happen in chess. I hope to show good results in both rapid and blitz. Everything depends on the games. I prepare for the competitions at the same level, regardless of the opponents. I have not had any special preparation for this tournament either."

It should be noted that the "Champions War" tournament will be held from April 27 to 30 at the Azerbaijan National Carpet Museum. In another meeting, Azerbaijani champion Rauf Mammadov will clarify relations with the 15th world champion Viswanathan Anand (India).
