"I wish the draw to be beneficial and successful for our team and fans".
Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by Gurban Gurbanov, the head coach of "Qarabag", in his statement to the club's official website.
The specialist evaluated the results of the UEFA Champions League play-off stage draw: "After each stage, we face more serious opponents. "Newcastle" drew 1:1 with PSG in the last round of the league stage. Therefore, it can be said that the strength of both teams is approximately the same. Playing against a Premier League club always requires extra effort. They are a very serious opponent. We will try to show a good game and prepare well. Because the English Premier League is the strongest championship in the world".
Gurban Gurbanov added that there is not much difference between the teams at this stage: "Every team can beat each other. It is possible to see 3-4 goals in each match. "Newcastle" is a serious opponent. We will try to prepare well for the match and get to know the opponent better. "Newcastle" is not weaker than any of the other opponents in this stage. They have their own unique playing style and are a very fast-playing team".
It should be noted that "Qarabag" will play its first match against "Newcastle" on February 17 or 18 in Baku.
