"As the end of the championship approaches, every game and every detail can seriously affect both teams. Yellow and red cards, suspended and injured players play a big role at this stage." This was stated by Elmar Bakhshiyev, former head coach of "Araz-Nakhchivan", in his statement to Sport24.az.
The experienced specialist assessed the championship chances of "Sabah" and "Qarabag" with 10 rounds remaining until the end of the season in the Misli Premier League:
"In the current situation, "Sabah" seems to have a psychological advantage. There is also a possibility that the point difference will be quickly closed in the three-point system. If they can maintain this pace until the end of the season, they will achieve what they want. The two teams that will go to the European Cups are already known – "Sabah" and "Qarabag". Theoretically, five teams still have a chance for the remaining two places.
It should be noted that "Sabah" currently leads the tournament table with 56 points. "Qarabag", which has 7 points less than the leader, is in the second place. Gurban Gurbanov's team has played one game less. "Turan Tovuz", with 44 points, completes the first "top three".
