"Qarabağ" is considered the favorite of the pair."
Idman.biz reports that Rauf Aliyev, a former football player of the Aghdam representative, said this in his statement to AZERTAC while talking about the first game of his former team against the Irish club "Shelbourne" in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League today.
The veteran striker said that he believes that "Qarabağ" will return from Ireland with a favorable result: "Shelbourne" is a passable opponent. True, their flank passes are dangerous. They also fight well in the air balls. These can cause problems for our team. But I don't think our representative will make these mistakes."
According to the former player of the Azerbaijani national team, "Qarabağ" can advance to the group stage of the Champions League: "Gurban Gurbanov's team has the potential for this. If they eliminate "Shelbourne" in the second qualifying round, they will face the winner of the "Shkendija" (North Macedonia) - FCSB (Romania) pair in the next round. These clubs are not opponents to be exaggerated either. Whichever team Qarabağ faces, they can beat it."
It should be noted that the "Shelbourne" - "Qarabağ" match, which will be held at "Tolka Park" in Dublin, will start at 22:45 Baku time.
