"Araz-Nakhchivan" is superior to "Aris" (Greece), which it will face today in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League.
Azer Bagirov, the former head coach of the Nakhchivan representative, said this in an interview with "Report".
The expert said that the club made good transfers during the summer break:
"Zira's" match with "Hajduk" showed that it is possible to play against all opponents. You just need to choose the right tactics. The most important thing is to prepare the team psychologically for victory. My thoughts about "Aris" are very good. At the same time, the transfers and test matches that "Araz-Nakhchivan" has recently carried out show that the team is seriously preparing. In my opinion, "Araz-Nakhchivan" can beat this opponent. At least it is possible to win in Azerbaijan. It can be said that "Araz-Nakhchivan" carried out the best transfers in the country during the summer break. It seems to me that the Nakhchivan team is superior".
He touched upon the transfers of the opposing team:
"Both sides want to pass the round and strengthen their weaknesses. We will see the level of the players transferred by "Aris" in today's match. "Araz-Nakhchivan" has spent more time preparing. They parted ways with Vadim Abdullayev from the previous squad, but kept all the other players".
The coach emphasized that the small number of fans will also affect the game:
"The fan issue can affect the team's game. My close friends and I will go to support "Araz-Nakhchivan" today. There is no football without fans. If the team plays within "native walls", it will see more support. I saw this when I worked at "Araz-Nakhchivan" in the past".
It should be noted that the match "Araz-Nakhchivan" - "Aris" will start today at 20:00 at "Dalga Arena".
