"Will it be possible to stop "Sabah" with 10 rounds left? It's hard to say." These words were said by Arif Asadov in his statement to Sport24.az.
The experienced specialist evaluated the championship chances of "Sabah" and "Qarabag" with 10 rounds left until the end of the season in the Misli Premier League.
"So far, the Masazir representative is in good shape. I think that during the championship, not only "Sabah" but also "Qarabag" will lose points. There are still 10 rounds ahead. There will also be a break in the Premier League due to the national team's games. After the break, the championship will enter a decisive phase. The teams are currently in good shape. The owners of the 1st and 2nd places are almost known in the fight for places that give access to European Cups. "Turan Tovuz" and "Zira" are real candidates for bronze medals. "Neftchi" can also join these teams. "Araz-Nakhchivan" can take the 4th place at the end of the championship. It seems largely certain that "Karvan-Yevlakh" will leave the elite. Again, it is necessary to wait 2-3 rounds. In recent times, "Gabala" has been losing points. In this regard, the representative of Yevlakh has a chance to stay in the league."
It should be noted that "Sabah" currently leads the tournament table with 56 points. "Qarabag", which scored 7 points less than the leader, is in the second place. Gurban Gurbanov's team played one game less. "Turan Tovuz", with 44 points in its asset, completes the first "top three".
