"Unexpected results may occur."
These words were said by Arif Asadov, the former coach of the Azerbaijani national team.
The expert shared his thoughts on the matches to be held in the 28th round of the Misli Premier League.
In the "Araz-Nakhchivan" - "Turan Tovuz" match, both teams are fighting for European cups. From this point of view, "Turan"'s chance for third place seems higher, and a victory will bring them significantly closer to their goal. "Araz", on the other hand, moves further away from this zone with every point lost. The team is playing at home this time and will undoubtedly try to win. I think the game will be interesting, but considering the overall balance of power, a draw seems more realistic.
The "Zira" - "Neftchi" match is also one of the most interesting games of the tour. This is a crucial match, and the teams are close both in the tournament table and in terms of points. This game can be described as a "six-point match". Although it is difficult to predict, the probability of a draw is also not small here.
Regarding the "Karvan-Yevlakh" - "Shamakhi" game, "Karvan"'s victory over "Kapaz" in the last round created self-confidence in the team. "Shamakhi", on the other hand, will enter the game more comfortably because they are not under serious pressure. For this reason, "Shamakhi" looks a bit superior on paper. However, considering "Karvan"'s performance in the last game, their victory is not excluded either," he said in a statement to offsideplus.az.
According to Asadov, the "Qarabag" - "Sabah" match is the most anticipated match of the tour:
"This game may be decisive in terms of the championship fight. If the team wins three points in this match, they will almost guarantee the championship. Therefore, "Qarabag" will try to achieve the maximum result. It is difficult to predict the outcome of the game, but it is expected to be tense and interesting.
In the "Kapaz" - "Imishli" match, the sides are almost equal in strength. Both teams are fighting to stay in the Premier League. After losing in the last round, "Kapaz" will focus on winning in front of their fans to compensate for it. From this point of view, their chances can be assessed a little higher. But "Imishli" also has the potential to surprise.
"Gabala" has approached the danger zone after the last defeat. "Sumgayit", on the other hand, has largely secured its place in the league. The home team will try to win this game as they have not been able to win in the last rounds. This factor slightly increases their chances. However, "Gabala" also has the potential to surprise, and overall, an evenly matched game is expected."
Note that the tour will end on April 19.
