Gurban Gurbanov: "We expect an interesting game with Chelsea"

"We are expecting a very interesting game. The arrival of clubs with a strong history to Azerbaijan, seeing such football players live in Baku is an additional incentive."

Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by Qurban Gurbanov, the head coach of "Qarabagh", at the press conference held before the match with "Chelsea" in the IV round of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League.

The 53-year-old specialist spoke about the preparation for the match: "We have not prepared badly. We want to show a fighting game tomorrow. I believe in my players. I hope our fans will be satisfied."

He commented on the opponent's arrival in Baku on the day of the match: "I don't believe that such situations have a bad effect on big clubs like Chelsea. Such situations happen a lot. It is not a problem for these teams to go to the field on the day of the game. We have also experienced such situations, we have felt the stadium on the day of the game. This factor should not be an additional incentive for us. This shows how seriously they approach their work. Because the time difference is big. That is why we should not find comfort in ourselves. It is not worth discussing one or two players of such teams. If there is no one, there are five. Their staff is wide. On the contrary, we must adapt to their game system. In such cases, no serious difference is felt. Sometimes it happened that other players created great problems for us when they played. That is, this factor is not so important."

It should be noted that the "Qarabagh" - "Chelsea" match will start on November 5 at the Tofiq Bahramov Republican Stadium at 21:45.
