The 31st round of the Azerbaijan Premier League was memorable with the Azerbaijan derby.
Idman.biz reports that "Qarabag" defeated "Neftchi" with a score of 3:0.
The longing for victory in games with its eternal rival continues for "Neftchi", considered the flagship of the country. The "black and whites" have not been able to win against the Agdam team for 18 matches. 16 of these games were in the championship, and two were in the national cup. The capital representative last defeated "Qarabag" on May 19, 2021. "Neftchi", which won the last round of the 2020/2021 season, formalized the champion title and put an end to the hegemony of its eternal rival. Let's not forget that Samir Abasov headed the team at that time. It seems that that bitter defeat gave "Qarabag" and its head coach Gurban Gurbanov additional motivation for revenge. After that, the Agdam representative enters the games with "Neftchi" in a different mood.
In all 4 games played this season, the "black and whites" lost to "Qarabag" and could not find a way to the opponent's goal. The goal difference is 0:11. The last time "Neftchi" disappointed the Agdam club was on April 24 last year in the semi-final of the Azerbaijan Cup. Rezuan Mirzov scored "Neftchi"'s consolation goal in that 1:4 defeat.
"Neftchi" has been longing for points in matches against "Qarabag" for more than two years. The team last drew with the Agdam team on February 27, 2023 in an away match.
It should be noted that after 31 rounds in the Premier League, "Qarabag" is in the 1st place with 76 points, and "Neftchi" is in the 2nd place with 35 points.
