The 27th round of the Misli Premier League will kick off today with a single match in Yevlakh, according to Sport24.az.
"Karvan-Yevlakh" hosts "Kapaz" on their home turf. For both teams, languishing at the bottom of the league table, this match is not just another game – it's a crucial encounter that could determine the fate of their season.
The last encounter between the teams ended with a 2:1 victory for the Ganja representatives. While this result gives "Kapaz" a certain psychological advantage, the game in Yevlakh could unfold with a completely different scenario.
Currently, the "yellow-blues" are in 10th place in the league table with 21 points. The home side is in last place – 12th – with 8 points. Despite this difference, the home-field advantage and fan support could be an additional source of motivation for the home team.
The fact that "Gabala" is only 2 points behind puts significant pressure on Azer Bagirov's team. Therefore, this away game is vital for the Ganja club, and a loss of points could further jeopardize their position.
It should be noted that the other matches of the round will be held tomorrow and Sunday.
