Samir Aliyev: Who does he think is lucky in the "bronze battle"?

"It is possible that there will be intense competition until the last round."

This was stated to Idman.biz by football expert Samir Aliyev.

The former football player of the Azerbaijani national team spoke about the fight for third place in the Misli Premier League. Aliyev said that both teams claiming 3rd place in the XXXIV round are waiting for a difficult game: "Looking at the tournament table, there is a six-point difference between "Araz Nakhchivan", which is in this place, and "Turan Tovuz", which is in fourth place. There are only three rounds left, which means a maximum of nine points. This week, "Turan Tovuz" will host "Neftchi" at home. It won't be an easy game. "Araz Nakhchivan" will play against "Qarabag" away. Despite the fact that Gurban Gurbanov's team has formalized the championship, "Araz Nakhchivan" is waiting for a difficult game."

The veteran football player highly appreciated the chances of "Araz Nakhchivan": "Looking at it this way, the Nakhchivan representative has a six-point advantage with three rounds left. To change the course, "Turan Tovuz" must win all three games from now on, and "Araz Nakhchivan" must lose. In my opinion, if not this round, the owner of the third place will be known in the next round."

It should be noted that "Araz Nakhchivan" is in third place with 55 points, and "Turan Tovuz" is in fourth place with 49 points. In the season when "Qarabag" formalized the championship, "Zira" secured the silver medal.
